Phantom vision2 plus having trouble with one of the motors during start up? Can take 10 or up to 15 attempts to get forth motor running smooth.
This is only when the motor is cold, it fires up fine once in use?
Any advice on this issue please?
Thanks

Sounds like a faulty joint on one wire to the motor[ "dry joint"]. The need to run it a few times before it goes properly cries, to me; "thermal lag". Get some nice, soft solder [crystal 60/40 ] and use it to add to each joint, once it is molten from the soldering iron. The amalgamation makes the melting point suddenly lessen, so the solder suddenly gets an apparent boost in temperature. I bet you spot it when you resolder it.
Might be in the ESC boards though.

Thanks for ur thoughts, is there any places in Scotland who would look at doing this form of repair or troubleshoot?
