    Recycling old Phantom 2

    I'm looking for a few spare ESC's and possibly a main board, but I'm in Australia,so depending on where you are the postage might be prohibitive?

    Just a random video from Adelaide River, Northern Territory, Australia.

    Hi Brad, Thanks for posting-I know the area well as my son lived in Darwin for 10 years and we visited often.Brings back great memories.

    Anyone managed to fit 3rd party gimbal/camera to a Phantom???

    This is maybe not exactly what you want to do,but on my old P2 I have a Runcam 2 HD. I use a simple servo controlled gimbal screwed to the base of the frame.It's an old "hack" machine,so not too worried about drilling holes and screws/non standard fittings etc.

    phantom 2 battery mod

    It's a 3S battery,irrespective of the number of cells.The pairs are in parallel, and then the 3 parallel pairs are in series,to make it a 3S.

    phantom 2 battery mod

    Hello again, Further to my previous reply, I should have added that with replacement 3s battery cells and access to the balance port ,you would now have to charge using a [non DJI] quality balance charger,with clips to the "power" terminals and then connection to the balance plug.

    Hello Trung, If you can open the case of the original DJI battery, you can replace the cells with those from another 3s battery.[or fit a complete 3s battery].For charging without the DJI battery circuitry, you will need to be able to access the balance charge connector of your replacement battery.

    Hi, the other option is to repack the batteries that you have with new cells-either yourself or by a battery specialist like the ones who repack cordless tool batteries.There was a post on this forum some time ago by someone who repacked them himself,and as I recall it was successful.
