Hello folks! My apologies if this has already been discussed, but I really am at my wits end with this. I've just updated the software on my phantom 2 and my Gimbal is now dead! Tried rechecking the updates and powering on and off but no good. I have included a screenshot of the update...

Just checked it with a friends monitor - still the same problem ...

Evening Folks, Sorry about the noob question , but I'm kind of at a dead end with this one! OK , had a video problem with my P2 , so back to the supplier who identified the problem as a faulty 2d gimbal - so kindly changed it to the 3d .. fantastic! Got home, fired her up .. nothing , no...

nothing obvious when the gimbal was off , checked the 8 pin grey ribbon cable - all ok ... any more ideas?

h3-2d mate , yeah I thought about that - I guess I'm going to have to take the gimbal off and have a good look at it!

Hi Peter, Thanks , but no worries there - were were over a beach at the time .. I'm ok'ish with airspace classification .. holding a CPL ;)

Afternoon Folks, I guess this may have been asked a few times before - I have a ph2 non vis with a gopro and 600mw vid tx + iosd. Had it up to 80 meters last night , only about 20 meters horizontal distance. What altitude generally is safe , (dont worry I wont hold you to it! :lol: ) ...

Morning Folks, Nice to be part of such a great forum - I have recently bought a non vision 2 , with the normal immersion 5.8 tx to a black pearl monitor. Everything has been working fine until yesterday , when I fired the phantom up along with the black pearl and there was no video - all of...
