rdc4444 said:Well I ordered two P2v+ version 3 in November. I decided to open the shell and take a peak inside and one has the 2.1 esc while the other one has the esc with no version number. I looked very closely at the wiring and escs on both and everything looked normal with no melted or deformed wires or esc's. Ive flown each one 19 times in cold weather in a non-aggressive manner. Ive also tipped both over when the motors were running and no escs were blown or show any signs of damage. Ive been reading a lot on this issue from this forum and dji.com forum and the more I read the more confused I get. Some people say opening the shell voids the warranty while others say it doesnt. Some people claim to have contacted DJI and vendors and that they have been told there is no known problem with any esc's on the version 3 while others claim DJI has admitted to the problem and to send it in for repair. Im just going to fly both and not worry. If one drops from the sky or has a burnt out esc I'll be back to let you know.
I can't believe you have 2 vPlus and here I sit waiting on dji to replace mine. I sent it last Friday thinking they should have it by now. I'm expecting to hear something maybe tomorrow, I hope.
If your esc's show a 2.1 then that's the quad I would stick to flying until you decide what you are going to do with it. I would send it back and get a new one. Btw, anyone buying a new quad especially a V3 should get it from dji. They have free shipping now. And the main reason is so you can get a quad that has the most recent updates.
