Was not latest firmware. It was about 100ft out. Wouldn't have made it back. The copter was descending and not responding to my controls - could've been 16% but it was 40% just 10 seconds before. It was 7ºC, and I've flown in much harsher conditions in the past. Has to be a bad battery.

oh... great

I just put a fully charged battery on my P2 and did some passes of some mini icebergs at the edge of Lake Michigan. When my FPV readout said I was at 40%, I decided to do one final pass, but after about 10 seconds of flight, the battery read out on my iOSD became 6%, and to my horror, the drone...

Hi, I have the Boscam RX LCD-5802 with FPVLR aerials, but I've noticed I get onscreen interference when the signal switches between RF-A and RF-B (the visible blue lights jump about). Could that be a faulty RX? Thanks

Hi! Could it be a dodgy transmitter? It's a Boscam 400mw Thanks

I tried some new antennae today and experienced a problem with my video transmit signal. Black screen at first, then video signal appears when flexing the connection of the TX antenna - PLUS - an intermittent iOSD Mini signal as well. So it can't be the antenna - is it the Boscam transmitter or...

I tried to turn the gain down for the yaw on the assistant app on the computer, but that never seems to work. I wonder why not.

Just wondering after I disconnected a faulty gimbal, and now it's in pieces. P2 now fails to start up its motors. Thanks

Thank you. Are there any clear advantages to using the Vision+ over the P2?

Hello, Does anyone know if I can retrofit an H3-3D gimbal and GoPro to a P2V+? Is it pretty much the same unit as the P2? I have a broken/salt drowned P2 and want to swap out my bits including the gimbal and FPV and iOSD Mini to another working quad body. Cheers

Update and question: The beeping is coming from one motor in particular - that must be the bad ESC right? Thanks

Thank you guys. I think I should replace the flooded PCBs to be sure. NB., My Hero3+ suffered the same fate and had been left to dry in salt before a full tear-down and alcohol clean yesterday - I switched it on with a new battery, and it worked! I wonder what makes it more durable than the...

Thanks, So the flashing amber LEDs show that its respective ESC is bad? (ie the two rear ones) How about the beeping? I just checked the bb...bb...bb... explanation on the wiki - it denotes abnormal input power apparently.

Hi everyone, I'm in the process of reviving my P2 after a dip in the sea when I was on holiday. It was submerged under about 3 ft of water for about 5 minutes (after having hit a pole next to the water). I dried it out and ditched the battery. Eventually I cleaned it and the gimbal and the...

Hi, I did the same thing, but when I switched it on after cleaning, LEDs lit up red, half beeped and some smoke came out. I've identified a blown ESC but what do the red LEDs mean?
