How does the functionality of this compare to the DJI Vision app waypoint features?

the basic function are the same.... but there is a difference of course. This will only work on a ipad not an android tablet. you can set way point patterns. you have more instruments you can save and recall way points. this is only good for a NONE vision aircraft like the phantom 2 with a go pro or other none DJI aircraft's. You can not see the a camera image and control the camera function. All in all it is between the PC version and the Vision version.

I like the Data Link a lot more. It worked well with the iPad and it could send the craft a much longer flights.

I been using it with the veralite, I can control just about everything with vera except for programming, that you can do that through eyezon. You can create scene using the alarm sensors though vera. I have mine setup when I'm in away mode if any sensor is trip vera will. Alert me regardless If the actual alarm is arm or not, there is a lot you can do. It's just a learning experience. I'm using it with ui7 and dsc alarm.

Not while using FreeFlight 2 on Android. You can use the QGroundControl app, I understand there might be issues with some qgroundcontrol features like loiter or directing turns, but basic waypoints work. Search Youtube for examples.

If you mean can you drive it based on GPS, NO. Though it is a DJI NAZA Unit and so I see no reason why you can't plug in a arduino pilot and give it some waypoints. If you are talking about staying on point at a location (GPS Lock) YES - In GPS mode it is very responsive and when you let go of the controls it stops in mid air and hovers even in wind (18 mph today and kept within 1 meter) Tried that with the Blade 350 QX and was disappointed (more like 4 meters) pretty iffy.

ABSOLUTELY YES! I have one and it works great! Makes sure you get the firmware when you download it updated relating to the Sky Pro and if you use Forelfight update that software as well. It will also work on maps as well so if you want to use it while walking about town it will do that nicely. Just make sure you have the map you want to use downloaded to your ipad first. I use it in my jet as well and it works fantastic there too! Software is free to download. Also, before you use it each time turn on the Sky Pro software first because this uses its software to link to whatever you are using. It also works on Jeppesen software as well. The little thing is a fantastic unit. It automatically seeks out ipads and shows how many it has locked onto. Make sure in the ipads General section the Spy Pro is recognized under Bluetooth! Once it recognizes it once it will be automatic going forward unless you have it removed, reformat your ipad or possibly remove the software.

My perspective on this is that they both perform the same function. It is a matter of where the camera display is located

Bluetooh works well, however the onboard apos ARE NOT android compatible. I used my Ipad connected to my Android WiFi to Run/Update maps apps etc.Love the radio. Hands free does well and the Android phone does work well with the JVC. Some Android apps such as online radio works through JVC's Phone app.

It has a Garmin GPS receiver and mapping software that has to be updated about once a month and it includes Sat radio for WX if you buy that option. This is a very good piece of gear but it's getting a little long in the tooth. Some other non TSOd GPS and Glass cockpit stuff has surpassed it. I sold this gizmo with my Bonanza a year ago and I now have a Vans RV12 with a Danon Skyview system in it. That is much more capable than the Garmin 796. If you only need a handheld, however, the 796 is probably the "top of the line" but you will pay for that.....probably can find a GPS that is cheaper and easier to operate by looking around. I have not done that because of my new airplane and the Skyview system in it.

I used a Boyo camera and no lines. However my view range is excellent. I don't recommend Pioneer, as GPS is goofy, not updated and not intuitive. Better off with Kenwood.

The one you show in the picture is not the latest version. The one you want is the DJI Phantom 2 Vision +. It come ready to fly with the controller that holds your cell phone. I bought a carry case, 2 extra batteries and a 32GB Micro SD card. Plus 8 extra propellors (I've already broken 3). The way to turn the motors off is to move the left throttle down to the bottom position and hold for 3 seconds. I have also had great fun with having one person fly while a second person works the camera from my iPad.

Check specs on DJI.com. I do not fly farther than I can see it. I have read accounts of in excess of 2000 feet altitude. If you exceed range and fly in GPS mode the aircraft will revert to "go home" mode and fly back to where it took off from and land. If you haven't bought yet consider the dji phantom vision II. It's awesom

no difference. great flyers to learn on. you will eventually want something better like dji phantom

Yes it does, and very well. Just make sure you download the latest firmware & software from Ubiquiti's website (the absolute latest being obtainable from the Ubiquiti Airvision forum itself).The new software is very stable, enables all the features, and consumes way less system resources.

Upgraded motors & controller, can do 16 waypoints, camera tilt uses a dial on the remote controller are the big ones that I see. I'm not sure about the cost but would bet it's a couple of 100 more. I got the vision plus V3 and have had great luck with it.

Just get the Phantom 2, and if you are going to do "good" photography get the Gimble mount. Do not get the Phantom vision.

I have an older version but believe the device works the same. All the AMOD does is create a GPS tracking log that captures coordinates and altitude on a regular basis that you determine, e.g., every 5 seconds. The you need software, either that provided by AMOD or another source, to correlate the AMOD data to the image data from your camera. I use HoudahGeo software for my Mac which will tag any kind of image with GPS data which I then load into Lightroom.

Nope. And good luck getting updates. Mine would miss several 20 minute waypoints in a row. I was in a helicopter with this on my lower leg in a pocket against the plexiglass. Can't get much close to an in obstructed view of the sky than that. And the charge more do the service than the unit itself costs. I am still,paying on the 1 year subscriton in spite or returning the unit.
