Hello, I was having the hardest time after a terrible crash. I replaced the shell, couldn't get it to fly, but the gimbal was always moving when I turned on the drone. I replaced the compass, did an advanced calibration, and now the gimbal doesn't move at all. I have read through these forums...

Thanks. I don't know if you anything about this, but for some reason, the USA companies I have seen won't ship drone stuff to Canada. The Canadian companies are like 70 dollars. Probably don't know a loop hole around that eh? Lol, don't worry, I'm not expecting you know the answer to that question.

Well, it's good to know that I tried all that I could. Oh well, I'll order a new one with the landing gear

Okay, that's good (well not good, but thanks for the info), should I order a new compass? or is there anything else that I can really do to fix it?

I have checked the wire and it appears to be in good condition. The connection looks good on both sides. When the crash happened, the compass had a lot of dirty it in, but, I cleared it out and the compass looks in good condition. And GPS has one cable coming from it. I guess the worry I have is...

And then I managed to pull off the IMU. But after it goes through it, it says it worked, but nothing changes. The lights on the drone are still solid red. And now the propellers don't work. And the calibration I used to do in the field no longer works. I guess this means I need to buy a new...

Here is the compass error that I am getting from the software

Hello, I am still confused as to why I have the wrong software. I have been downloading it from the right spot. Here is where I'm getting it from.

Wow, this is so confusing. The box says Phantom 2, without Vision, and my remote is definitely not a Vision remote. It is possible that my girlfriend downloaded the wrong version of the app. Is this a big deal? I definitely have a Phantom 2 nv. Okay, so restarting flight controller is basically...

Hey, I have a Phantom 2 (non vision) with a gimbal installed that supports a go pro. Why do you ask? The picture you showed looks pretty close to mine. Do you have any advice?

I plugged in the drone and this error message came up "abnormal compass data. Please restart the Flight Controller or reconnect the compass due to the loss connection. if thes error continues, please contact your dealer or dJI customer service". Does anyone know how to restart the flight...

Thank you for the advice. I will be able to access a new mac tomorrow, so hopefully it'll explain everything.

Thank you for your reply. It is the old style where the compass is on the outside attached with two brackets. I looked at the wire and the compass, they both seem fine. Is there anyway to tell if its definitely the compass that is causing the problem? I just don't want to buy a new one to find...

I had a bad crash last week and I replaced the shells. Everything is back together now, but when I turn it all on, the two back lights on the drone are solid red. I won't allow me to calibrate by flicking the switch on the controller back and forth. I have been trying to read up on it, there...

Thank you all for your advice! I didn't notice the alignment pin. I fixed it, and it works perfectly! Thank you all so much!
