Product Description

Fly almost 30 minutes with the Fuselage Upgrade Kit v2.0 for DJI Phantom 1. Use your upgraded Phantom 1 as a superior video platform and keep your camera aloft with a GoPro* and gimbal for up to 20 minutes. Your Phantom 1 upgraded with the Fuselage Upgrade Kit v2.0 will fly longer than a comparably equipped Phantom 2 - and does not require the proprietary DJI proprietary Intelligent Battery. Instead the Fuselage Upgrade Kit v2.0 for DJI Phantom 1 uses your stock DJI Phantom 1 battery* in parallel with a nonproprietary 5200mah* to provide 7400mah of total battery power for a quarter of price of the DJI Phantom 2 Intelligent Battery. So fly longer and fly economically.

Assembly Instructions
Assembly instructions for the Fuselage Upgrade Kit v2.0 are available at Instructable's website at the following link:

http://www.instructables.com/id/Phantom-Ultra-1-Upgrade-Kit-for-DJI-Phantom-1/

Required Products:

9" 9443 Carbon Fiber Props:
When flying the Fuselage Upgrade Kit v2.0 with lighter payloads, DJI's standard 9" props work fine and provide good handling. But when adding extra gear onboard the Fuselage Upgrade Kit v2.0, which most users will do, carbon fiber props are really required. The flight characteristics vastly superior to the DJI 9" props when adding a GoPro*, gimbal or FPV gear.

These props are not always perfectly balanced out-of-the-box (as reported online and confirmed here), but taking the time to balance and tune them will yield great results and provide much superior handling to the DJI 9" props on the Fuselage Upgrade Kit v2.0. Consider buying an extra set (CW and CCW props) in case the Chinese quality control misses something, or in the event you need to replace one. (Adjustments to the NAZA software gains settings are recommended for optimal flight with 9" props. See instructions.)

Walkera 5200mah 3S Lipoly Battery Pack:
The Walkera 5200mah 3S Lipo Battery Pack has a higher power-to-weight ratio than the DJI Phantom 2's Intelligent Battery. By eliminating DJI's unnecessary LED display, electronic chips, button and extra plastic on the intelligent battery, the Walkera 5200mah battery weighs almost 50 grams less than the DJI Intelligent Battery, while matching it's power. When paired onboard the P1Ultra with the stock DJI Phantom 2200mah battery - almost 30 minutes of flight time is possible. To connect to the Phantom, modifications of the power leads to a standard XT60 connector can easily be done at your local hobby shop.
