Hello,

I'm french (sorry for my bad english). There we have some laws very stricts about weight : the weight announced by DJI is the weight maximum authorized.
Then, my first question is: what is the maximum weight: 1300g or 1350g?
My second question is: the update improves motors and props, then the max weight. So, are you planning to make an official annouce (on your web site) about the new max weight?

Thanks !!

See you

Maybe if you fly near sea level,  with only 1300g take off weigth stability  is iffy at 3000 meters AMSL.

Current specs still shows 1300g recommended max. and 1350g max. weight,  haven't seen any revised specs for new propulsion system

The update only take effect, if you Exchange motors and props, its not the update itself.

He means the newest Phantom 2 with the new ESC's, Motors and 9450 Props and not the Software update.  DJI still shows the old weight specs

HI I have had the same ptoblem with the Phantom 2 Vision + specs and understand your requirement which I think is the same as in the UK. PLease see thread  "Maximum Take Off Mass of Phantom 2 Vision +"  (http://forum.dji.com/forum.php?m ... id=4388&lang=en ) regarding this. THe MTOM still has not been published but the query has, according to one correspendent from DJI referred this to their 'engineer'. WE hope that the weight will be published soon!

If you add to much equipment, you'll end up with FRENCH TOAST after it crashes.

i was talking about the full package with the camera. Most P2's with gimbal and gopro+ FPV and iOSD are around 1350g, some are lower of course. DJI recommends 1300g as max. weight. 1680g is way to heavy

DJI has not given this....or for that matter many other specs.

One of the DJI forum admins did mention in an earlier thread that they would try to obtain it from engineering.
