    One of my phantom 2 vision plus' motor not spinning

    No problem at all. Second unit started to smoke out of one of the arms as soon as I powered it up. First one didn't smoke until I held the power button on longer. It just wouldn't turn on. Almost like it was shorted out and tripped something. My dealerhad said he sold hundreds of the...

    One of my phantom 2 vision plus' motor not spinning

    The dealer was on the phone with me and told me to hold the power button down after the second time pressing. When I did that it started to smoke. Before I did that I tried to turn it on and it would just shut right off. I told dealer what was happening and that's when he told me to do that...

    One of my phantom 2 vision plus' motor not spinning

    Try and smell around the arms where the motors are not turning. You will most likely smell some burnt electrical parts. I had two units sent to me that did similar things and the ESC burnt out of them. Electronic Speed Controllers. The only difference is my unit would not even turn on...

    NEW Vision + V3.0 Tech Questions

    Thank you very much for this. I really needed to hear something good. The dealer is going to install prop guards for me and I couldn't be happier about that. Thanks for taking the time to send me that message.

    NEW Vision + V3.0 Tech Questions

    I am looking forward to working with this product. But I am also scared as hell to fly it right now. I am not giving up. I just hope DJI doesn't give up on us customers.

    NEW Vision + V3.0 Tech Questions

    Yes I did afte the first one burnt. Now this is number two. Don't mind me if I am little upset right now. I feel I just waisted $1400 on something that will never be reliable enough to use. I am hoping I can use this thread to somehow fill me in as to what I should expect from these units...

    NEW Vision + V3.0 Tech Questions

    I am new to the quad copters and purchased a phantom 2 Vision +. I received my first one last week and it literally lasted 20 seconds before it burnt up a ESC (electronic speed control). So the distributor has been great and agreed to send me a brand new one. Well the second one arrived today...

    Phantom 2 Vision Plus Start Up ISSUE

    I am sorry but I am not sure what you mean by this. Are you saying that out of the box it was in throttle lock and that might prevent it from turning on? Please elaborate a little more if you have some insight as to what may have been the cause.

    Phantom 2 Vision Plus Start Up ISSUE

    Not sure what this is supposed to mean. Hmmm But to reply to the other post above, i didn't even get the motors turning. I literally was trying to turn it on. While turning it on it started smoking. I'm assuming a dud but doesn't make me feel very confident these are well built. I...

    Phantom 2 Vision Plus Start Up ISSUE

    Well I researched for a while and decided to get the newest Phantom 2 Vision Plus and it arrived today. I wish I had good news. I turned on the unit on and it powered up fine but the battery was low. I turned it all off and charged the battery. Once fully charged I put the battery back...
