Add ons for DJI Phantom 2 ?

<p>Please guide me on the add ons for the DJI Phantom 2. I dont have the accessories to view the live image from the flying GoPro so I am not able to monitor how the video is being captured.<br>

And also what are the other add ons ?<br>

Regards</p>

<p>Did you mount the GoPro on the H3-3D gimbal, or is mounted directly to the Phantom with a hard mount?<br /><br />If you used the H3-3D gimbal, then there is an AV Out on the GCU (Gimbal Control Unit). I might use a recipe like this:<br /><br />1) A <a href="http://1uas.com/5.8Ghz-VideoLink-Transmitter-Lite-Module-Tx-Lite-Module"><strong>DJI 5.8GHz "Lite" Video Transmitter</strong></a> (about $55)<br /><br />2) A <a href="http://1uas.com/5-8GHz-VideoLink-Receiver-Module-AVL58-Video-Downlink-Receiver-RX"><strong>DJI 5.8GHz Receiver</strong></a> (about $75)<br /><br />3) A <a href="http://1uas.com/5-8GHz-VideoLink-Receiver-Module-AVL58-Video-Downlink-Receiver-RX"><strong>DJI Clover Antenna Kit</strong></a> (about $55)<br /><br />4) If you also want to see some flight telemetry overlaid on the video (a very, very good idea - you can see battery life, orientation, distance, altitude, home point direction, flight control mode, satellite count, etc), you'd also want the <a href="http://1uas.com/IOSD-Mini-For-NAZA-M?search=iosd%20mini"><strong>DJI iOSD Mini</strong></a> (about $60). <br /><br />5) It's easier to install all of that with the <a href="http://1uas.com/Phantom-2-Part-9-FPV-Cablehub?search=fpv%20hub"><strong>DJI FPV Hub</strong></a> (about $12).<br /><br />6) On the ground side, you'll need to power the receiver. I like to use Sony-style NP-F batteries for all sorts of things (LED lighting panels, video cameras, etc), so I get an adapter plate <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006733DB2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1"><strong>like this one</strong></a>. You can use it with readily available batteries in that format, <strong><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Maximal-NP-F950-F970-Replacement-Camcorder/dp/B001FA0B3U/ref=pd_bxgy_p_text_z">like this</a></strong>, and you may want a simple charger for it, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Battery-Charger-NP-QM71D-NP-QM91D-Batteries/dp/B000KU5CN0/ref=pd_bxgy_p_img_y"><strong>like this one</strong></a>.<br /><br />7) And of course you'll need to display the signal out of the receiver. I you might use something like <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Lilliput-665gl-70np--Camera-Monitor-Component/dp/B005VH0UMU/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1424056328&sr=8-5&keywords=liliput+7+inch+monitor"><strong>this Lilliput display</strong></a>. It can use the same battery mentioned above, so maybe get a couple of those.<br /><br />8) That display has HDMI inputs, but for the 5.8GHz downlink you'll be using a component video input, and the Lilliput uses BNC inputs. So, you'll need a cable with a 1/8" ("mini") connector (to plug into the RX), and a male BNC on the other. Or, a cable and an adapter. Like <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DRQM2WI?psc=1"><strong>this</strong></a>, <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Female-Jack-Male-Plug-Adapters/dp/B002IUAUI2/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1424060145&sr=1-1&keywords=mini+to+bnc"><strong>this</strong></a>, and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DI899BW?psc=1"><strong>this</strong></a>.<br /><br />Once you start putting things like this together, you have to be ready to be someone resourceful on mounting parts, perhaps doing some soldering, or knowing someone who is comfortable doing so. It's not difficult, and there are lots of how-to videos online.</p>
