"HI,
Yeah, the Horizon HD is a problem camera. I have three and have given up on them. There are better cameras out there that are less expensive. Look at a Mobius Action camera ~70$. Much better video quality. Look at this thread started by…"

Hi,Does anyone know of a connector that converts from the DF13 (1.25 mm pitch) connector, Like on the APM, to a regular bread board (2.54 pitch) connector? I would like to use the larger connector so I can build a wiring harness for my FPV…
Hi,I did a first flight with my 3DR telemetry radio a few days ago. I only flew a distance from home of about 0.4 km and I think I am getting a very weak signal. I am using the stock antenna and the default settings (64 airspeed) I attached a graph…

"Thomas,

Did you solve your problem? I sure would like to know.
Thanks
