So after what, 6-8 yrs of Phantom 2V+ I bite the bullet and move up to a Mavic Air 2... It arrives next day from Amazon, BUT INCLUDES NO MANUAL WORTH A DANG! ***? I search online, go to DJI, and find NOTHING LIKE A USERS MANUAL!? They seem to have gone to one line videos for individual...

I am a long time lurker/poster with my Phantom2 V+... Video feed EEPROM lost its program so I sent to a friend to reprogram for me; 5 weeks ago... Meanwhile, I am getting older! I finally decided I needed to gift myself a Mavic Air 2 as an upgrade/replacement; it was my birthday don't ja...

haha! And thanks for your fly away story! Too bad you didn't have that Marco Polo on IT at that time. So what would you recommend for a step up replacement for today?

I can get both extenders to output wifi SSID, I can connect to either from my android 9.0 phone, but no program makes connection it will use thru extender to either drone... With your help site (ah yes, thank you @msinger), I was able to download and install dji vision app; it at least lets me...

THANK you Rod!! I forgot all about that GREAT site! I cannot believe BOTH my drones stopped video feed AND telemetry; I understand the eprom chip issue needing reload, and both of these have sat for probably 1 year since last use (all working), but that does not affect the telemetry I do not...

It seems DJI stopped all support for our old Phantom 2+ drones? I cannot find a dji go, dji pilot app that connects to either of my phantom 2 vision+ drones... I can fly them blind with no cell app support so know they are working. One has nice 2.4ghz wifi sig I can connect to (other does...

No. Swap any two motor leads should fix it. Mtr going backwards.

Cells go dead over time if not charged occassionaly. Smart pcb needs volts on inside to turn on charge circuit. No volts, no charge. Search my last post if you want to see how to attempt 2 revive them. It requires drilling a small hole and manually charging the inside cells just enough for...

not having resistor in series and not being able to get hi amps is not good sign. Ihad to current limit and/or keep the volts just a volt or two above my cells or the current would go to 10+ amps. This all may be for naught anyway; I tried a discharge test @ 2amps and it turned off the smart...

Paul, I kept pushing the on button to see when it would turn on; IIRC it was around 8-9v... I think you should up the current! you show at least one cell is taking a charge... I assume you have a resistor or some other current limit method you are using to keep the current so low? Assuming...

So when the batt goes too flat for the Uprocessor control card to activate the series FET and let it charge, you CAN try jump starting it... Know this is potentially dangerous so do this with care, in a lipo bag or ammo box or... So P2 batts can be jumped by drilling a small (I used 1/8"...

So came back today, and find it shows charged - to 1 bar. Volts at 8.x so 1 cell set obviously is dead still now. For kicks charging again by hand... 2.6 amps but at least I can do it thru the normal batt contacts... 1 green flashing until 2 green flashing @ 12.3v 3 flashing @ 12.6 but...

So a friend had my second P2V3+ and let it sit over winter, and one batt came back, other is dead. Can it be recovered? Normal answer is NO. But why not try? So I had him give me the dead batt... Yep, nothing. Putting upto 40Vdc into the terminals produced 15ma but nothing; maybe if I...

R u guys sure ur issue is not just the scrambled prom chip? My buddy in KS has that "repair" down to 30 min job to reprogram. Google it?

Hahaha! Bladeless fan! Haha! Blades are in the base. Hahaha! Quiet? Jet engine sound! Hahaha! Next thing you know dyson will be peddling a "digital motor"!
