    No video question

    Hello all, so this is more of a technical question about the no video problem these drones have. I understand from reading prior threads that if you have telemetry but no video it is typically caused by the lower board in the wifi module. Some are able to reflash it.... with varying degrees of...

    Need help reconnecting RotorPixel Gimbal wires after crash

    Not to hijack the thread but what do you think about the rotorpixals weight contributing to the crash? I seem to have an easy time getting into a "vortex ring state" ? I have had a vew crashes only while landing always when I am feeling a little more bold on landing a little quicker. Had the...

    Replaced mainboard, all is well now. Not sure what "blew" as there was no visible damage but I may consider gluing in white wire with rubber cement to prevent this from happening again as I do believe that the suggestion of frying due to unplugging with power on was correct.

    ANY Update at all on P2V FC-200 Component level Repair for WiFi?

    I wish but unfortunately the money it would take would exceed the potential revenue in repairs. I have taken apart my egg that has video but no telemetry and also a "as is" mystery egg that I gambled on ebay only to find black screen of death... tried with 5 different app versions then upgraded...

    so against the advice from people I updated my fc200 to 1.1.9 from dji website...all went well. Then shortly thereafter I lost my video feed. I found a version that says 1.1.8 in the rar txt file and reflashed it and now I have my camera back. In the app it still says 1.1.9 (as it did before the...

    gimbal now working via 7th channel activation tool. Now just missing telemetry and battery info.... That is with X1, no gimbal control in app.

    I tried both, I have the basic, I get no feedback from x1 in calibration unless I select the upgraded. Everything is up to date, I have not come across how I might be able to factory reset the controller but would try that if I could. To my knowledge the telemetry is in the 5.8 GHz feed to the...

    In post #2 I mentioned I hooked up original gimbal, gimbal wire was in kit as well and made no difference. I agree I am pissing in the wind... But the time and money to get the old drone somewhere to be tested is more than replacing everything I reckon. Plus I will have plenty of spare parts. I...

    so I replaced the white wire, wifi wires in drone, gimbal wire, compass wire.... no change at all. I upgraded from the re500 to the re700, paired the egg, still no change. Problem remains; no gimbal tilt, no drone battery info, no gps satellites, no distance, alt, speed. I have a feeling I...

    so where the 4 wire white wire from the egg goes into the mainboard I see a smd cap and an smd resistor (not marked). Are they the fuses you were referring to? I will test both if it comes down to it...

    Thank you for your reply! I am on mobil at the moment but I will try to type a good response. The cable kit has the white 4 pin and a few others including the one that would have the gimbal control if I am not mistaken. Genuine DJI Phantom 2 Vision Part P2V-22 Cable pack -US stock | eBay...

    also ordered cable kit, (I doubt it but it seems to have been the solution to this problem for at least one person as far as I could find.) and just to do another test I hooked up stock gimbal and cam to original white wire and still no luck.

    Hello, greetings! I am new to drones but am pretty good with electronics and soldering etc so I thought I might be able to get this drone working.... I got a P2V from a guy, has a rotorpixel gimbal, was upgraded to fpvlr stage 2 antennas (before I started troubleshooting) and I am hoping to...

    Dji vision app not showing sattelites, battery level and the current hight etc.

    bump! has anyone figured this out? bought a new to me p2v which was a "GREAT DEAL!!!" but it had a bad battery in the range extender and bad usb charge port there which I fixed both, then I get the camera bound to the device and I get camera feed over wireless but no telemetry, no battery info...
