    Flashing green red lights

    I think i have been in the same boat. Plug in you controller and fire up the controller software. make sure when you toggle your switches it the software moves from GPS to ATTi etc... mine would not ever get to GPS mode. hence the yellow lights.. I took the controls apart and it was a loose/dry...

    Three buzzes after ribbon replacement

    This is exactly what mind did. I had 2 issues. the first that caused this trashing around was a bad ribbon cable. it was brand new but just never worked. I purchased a pair of amazon to replace it and you could feel they were thicker and that stopped the beeping. the thrashing was due to a bad...

    What is your flight time/battery life. Mine is 12 min?

    just a little background, i got a 2nd hand ebay crash special and after a month of work i have my camera and everything else working. With this i can now see the app and all the FPV data that comes with it, that pretty cool i have to say. My question relates to actual flight times. I have 3...

    Help! P2V+ not powering on

    and all the green lights scroll up on the battery? i know its another dumb question but i wanted to call it out. I assume you only have one battery too? look where the battery goes into the bird at the connections on the left hand side of the battery slot, do they look ok, any damage to the...

    replaced V+ gimbal cable and then this happend...:

    i had EXACTLY this.. it was one of the grey ribbon cables from the bird to the top of the camera. remove them, check the pins are all good and plug them back in.... fixed mind.

    Almost crashed: battery failure suspected.

    I think you answered your own question, 43 flights on a battery seems like a good life, other batteries work fine, i'd put my money on a failing battery. if your feeling brave you could try it again the same battery a few times and see if you can get the same result. Dave

    Camera removal from a Phantom 2 Vision+

    yep. i have plugged it in and run all the software updates. the assistant does not, that i can see anyway, have any camera setting in it. from what i can tell it has no idea if the camera is attached or not. the only change from having the camera and not is the red lghts.

    "Low Battery Auto Go Home" won't toggle 'on' in the app

    make sure you have set the software to NAZA mode too. i think these are part of that set up. Lastly i had the same issue last week that was a bit like it. i could not get a GPS lock. tunes out the switch on my controller had gone bad. just a couple of dry joints .. just a thought. let us know...
