    Phantom 2 not working

    The beeping sounds like the normal 'boot sequence' as far as I can tell. This may sound like a daft question, but how are you initiating the flight mode? To initiate the flight you need to move the sticks on the TX into CSC, left stick to bottom right and right stick to bottom left. Sent...

    Drone not flying

    Try recalibrating your TX through the vision assistant software. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Phantom 2 not working

    The first thing that strikes me is that you're able to calibrate the RC through the vision assistant software which would suggest that the drivers are working fine as windows is communicating through the drone via USB, if you are able to calibrate the RC through that it would also suggest that...

    Drone not flying

    I'm confused by your meaning of "limit of turning"... do you mean that the propellers are jittering rather than turning? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    ESC's not lighting up during boot sequence

    Thanks for the link mate, most of that information is a bit outside of my wheelhouse but I was able to establish that the v2.0 ESCs don't have the additional 4 beeps on the boot cycle. So it would seem that I have 3 v2s and 1 v1 escs on the bird which explains the muted sounds. The rest of the...

    ESC's not lighting up during boot sequence

    Hi guys, I'm having an issue with the LEDs on 3 of the ESCs not lighting up during the boot sequence. They all light up during flight mode and the bird flies just fine but its a bit annoying. A bit of history on the bird, I had to replace 2 ESCs (v2.0) a while back and it hasn't worked since...

    Mac ver 3.2 assistant software crash

    So DJI Finally found a solution for this issue. However, it would seem that after all their investigations in to the problem, they put all their efforts in to updating the website to state that it only supports Mavericks upwards instead of an actual solution….bravo DJI…bravo...:unamused:

    What Is The Power Output?

    Could the camera have 2 values for both "camera" and "camera+wifi"? Interesting stuff though, I dunno what I can do with this info but it's good to know it exists and there's a database for this kind of thing! Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Camera bench test fine but when I fly keeps jerking up

    I agree with Pauls007. It looks like FPV mode has been activated. You can turn it off in the DJI Vision app settings. Let us know how you get on. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Twitching gimbal motors

    I was experiencing this with a bgc 2.2b. The twitching (for me) was a result of the brushless motors meeting some resistance (the weight of the fc200 cable was enough!) and there not being sufficient power delivered to the motors. You can change this in the basecam GUI via usb. Hope that helps...

    Help!!!!!!!

    I have a small cable adapter that slides over the contacts of the bird where the battery connects...I don't know it's technical name or where I got it from but maybe someone else could chip in with that info. That's how I power my gimbal anyway. Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots mobile app

    Motors and ESCs or Just Motors

    Thanks for the advice J Dot, I've got the motors on order, I'll go through it all methodical like. I would love to say that it was bought as a spares or repairs but sadly that wasn't the case. The seller replied with "it was fine when I had it" which makes me think, if he's being honest (gotta...

    Motors and ESCs or Just Motors

    Hi guys, I'm just in the process of diagnosing a problem with my dads P2V that he's bought 2nd hand. I think I've got to the bottom the root cause but just wanted to get the opinion of others before I start switching out parts. All 4 prop motors are non functioning at the moment. 2 opposing...
