Hi Dom,dom
The original Phantom could use the Wireshark goggles, but you had to mount your own GoPro + buy your own gimbal - but usually this was fixed, unlike the Phantom Vision 2 - The Phantom did not use Wifi but usual radio waves for transmitting and receiving, which meant that it was easier to modify for those with skills in this area..
The Vision uses a Wifi extender to communicate with the camera, which means distance is Good but not exceptional - however this P2 is more stable, everything out of the box (no messing) and has a longer life in the air. The down-side is that Wireshark Goggles are not an option at least for now... but generally I am very happy with it with my iPhone being able to 'see' what it sees! The years of flying model helis when there ware very little aids, makes this a snip to fly!

Do you have a non-standard rack in that car - seems to have a lot of lock to get round the hairpin at the start?Storer said:
Please remind me which gearbox you have in that car. Great change.
Do you use the car on the road and if so what is the change like in town and can it cope with stop-start traffic.

The gearbox is a Gemini/Ricardo with a taller 6th gear and a taller final crown/pinion as well to improve the top speed.
Although the car is road registered it has been modified for track use with a large aero package (mostly underneath) which makes it quite difficult for regular road use. The seq.gearbox is great on track but not good for going to the bakery on sunday morning.
Cheers,
Javier

I like the mirrors on the wings. a nice amount of visibility and nicely out of the way of the doors.srreck said:
im wondering what you are leaking from underneath, left a trail on the tarmac?Here's 25mins of the Can Am on it's maiden track outing at Silverstone this weekend: https://vimeo.com/89344230
Hey guys.... I'd never planned on doing track days, but the occasional single session is nice to just let the car loose a little ;-)
I don't know what the DB limit was to be honest, but I didn't see anyone get flagged, so I think it's pretty generous.
Dom.... Yup, I go to Shelsley whenever possible as it's a nice 35m drive... were you there too?

Wow, this thread has gone quiet I can't believe in a yr since my last posting, I'm the one resurrecting it, come on guys, join in!!
Same event 1 yr on.... The Can Am in a short taster session (it was reg flagged twice for Porsche incidents):
Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPvVi_r6rlM
Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vadDX8PCfKw
Continued work on the chassis is paying off, the car is feeling better & better with each tweak
