Which leads me to believe that I had some sort of faulty battery or something went haywire with mine that caused it lose power. Flew 6-7 minutes and landed, then took off about 2 minutes later and right after I got it off the ground it went nuts. Shot up in the air very high, flew south a...

I understand that, I just was speaking theoretically....if the phantom didn't have enough battery life to go home, would it auto land wherever it was. Another user said that it would.

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS FYI, I contacted Amazon and they said since it wasn't "sold and shipped" by Amazon, I had to go through the dealer. They said if if the order had been fulfilled by Amazon they would have sent me another. Had I known this...

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS frank, sent you a PM

Exactly what I thought!! Thank you very much!

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS I saw no evidence of burning on the outside of the phantom. I was afraid to do anything to do it since it's a warrant issue, so I packaged all up in the factory box and placed inside another box and shipped back to DJI. Should be...

Re: Battery problem -> Land Maybe this has something to do with what happened to me!!! I flew my P2V+ around 6-7 minutes and landed, then a minute or two later I took off again. After being up for about 15 seconds my Phantom shot straight up in the air pretty high and then flew south for a...

OK, as I sit here waiting to here from DJI on my warranty claim, I am still puzzled as to what went wrong with my Phantom. I am 100% sure it was nothing done by my, and I don't mean that arrogantly, I just know I was extremely methodical and took every precaution before things went south...

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS Exactly my point... The battery was no where near close to being dead and even if it had some sort of fault or issue and drained prematurely, wouldn't the phantom automatically try to land? I know it's set to "Return to Home" on...

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS I did not power cycle the phantom before taking off again. I did land it probably 50 feet from the original launch point at the first flight. I landed it after approximately a 6 minute flight and shortly after landing I took off...

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS I don't understand how trying to return it through amazon is gonna do me any good guys...? The reason I'm confused is because if I try to go to the return process and click "defective" it then only offers me the option to ask the...

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS Also, I went to Amazon and tried the process just to see what happened and it did NOT give me the option for replacement. It only gave me the option for refund and said it had to be review and approved by the dealer. I did not...

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS Is there any downside to letting it go back to DJI and then if I'm not happy with their answer, returning it through Amazon? Thanks for all your advice so far everyone.

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS It was sold by the dealer on Amazon, it wasn't sold "by Amazon".... I guess it's in DJI's hands now. If I don't get a good resolution from them, I'll have them send it back to me and I will contact Amazon.

Re: Brand New P2V+ flewaway & crashed!! ADVICE NEEDED, PLEAS How would i do this though?? If the dealer said it had to go through DJI, what will Amazon do for me? Won't they refer me to the seller who sold it through their site? I guess if I'm not satisfied with DJI I can just have them...
