    BC20-4 Balance Charger Flashing Lights - Is this normal?

    Hello everyone, thanks in advance for the help. I'm getting solid red - flashing red alternating; see the attached video. I've had the phantom for nearly 6 months and I've never seen the charger blink like this. And it happens with both of my batteries. Any advice would be greatly...

    my first crash: hard, wet!

    Good call on ordering the replacement motor. Not sure what the minimum battery voltage is to maintain normal flight but in my experience, when the battery is low what you described can definitely happen. Was the built-in LED blinking red rapidly as you were bringing it down?

    Circular Hover Pattern in GPS Mode

    Well, I used the red stickers as markers and they are lining up so I'm pretty sure the shell is on correctly. I agree, if the circular flying pattern was caused by the tilt on the one motor it should be happening in all modes -- not just GPS. Still going to replace the shell when it comes in...

    Circular Hover Pattern in GPS Mode

    Are there any adjustments I can make in NAZA-M to compensate for the bent arm? No matter how many times I run advanced calibration or re-calibrate the compass the toilet bowl effect remains. The diameter of the circle seems to fluctuate. Sometimes it's only 2-3 feet wide, sometimes the circle...

    Oh and -- Single green, blinking. GPS seems to be functioning normally.

    Circular Hover Pattern in GPS Mode

    Thanks for all the replies! I have run advanced calibration a few times. Flight has improved but it is still giving me the "toilet bowl" problem. The numbers I'm getting for the compass in NAZA are all within normal range. I can say for sure that one of my Phantom's arms is definitely bent...

    Circular Hover Pattern in GPS Mode

    Hi everyone, First post here - been reading most of the posts. Great to see such an active, friendly community focused on the Phantom. First some backstory -- A few weeks ago my phantom took a pretty nasty fall. One of the propellers separated from its motor mid-flight about 50 feet up in...
