    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    26m, as it was by default. Tried and tested in a nice open field, RTH worked fine. Anyway, I dropped the bird at the shop today and I should know more within a couple days, but honestly my mind is kinda set about selling it. With the money I would get from everything that I have I would almost...

    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    Right, so here's a screenshot with a freshly charged battery. Is that deviation on cell 1 that significant?

    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    Poland, I know where to find decent prices here though. Yeah well, I hooked both batteries up to the assistant and looked at the health% status, which seemed fine to me. Apparently though it can be not enough or misleading if they're not being stored properly. Would you be able to say anything...

    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    I see, I get your point. I have no idea how they were stored by the previous owner, but with one being useless after just 15 charge cycles it's not reassuring. Hopefully they'll be able to test it with one of their own batteries at the shop before I decide to buy a new one!

    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    Yeah, I don't have iOSD installed yet. I was going to buy it when all other issues are resolved. I'll check the battery after I charge it, but first I guess I'll wait to see what the guys at the shop will say. However my crash wasn't caused by the Go-home on low battery option, as you can see on...

    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    Yeah, the 2nd battery is a goner and I no longer fly with prop guards. All motors look fine to me and they were all still spinning after I picked it up. I'm going to drop it off at a shop close by, I'm half decent with electronics but have little to no knowledge on drones. Maybe they'll be able...

    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    Okay, so: This are my batteries. The first one is the one I'm flying (and crashing) with. Looks fine to me, but yeah, I'm not an expert on those things. Second battery gives me about 3 minutes of flight time before it initiates emergency landing. Oddly enough, it also looks fine in the...

    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    Hmm, I didn't even think about the batteries... I have two of them, one is basically done and I use it for tests when I make any adjustments, the other one charges fine and gives me about 15mins of flight time. It's not charged right now, should I just pop it in and take a screenshot from the...

    Phantom 2 issues & crash

    Alright, so I have a couple problems with my bird, just when I thought I managed to get it all up and running... A little backstory: I put together a Phantom 2 with H3-3D and a FPV setup. By put together I mean buying a stripped down Vision (without Wifi and camera), replacing the Tx and Rx for...

    P2V modifications and transmitter problems

    Hi guys! First post here and I'm not sure if it's in the right section because my problem is pretty specific, but I'm really out of ideas at this point, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I bought a used and really stripped down Vision on the cheap (no wifi module or gimbal) with the...
