    Alex from Sweden here. I have a strange problem with my phantom vision 2 plus. Everything works but I do not have enough power to lift. All batteries are new and this happened probably after updating the controller. This was revealed today and it has never behaved like this before. When I planned to stop, turn off the propellers so accelerates them briefly before they turned off ??? When I give the maximum speed on the controller it is not enough to lift ???

    You need to re-cal the transmitter with the remote assistant then do the quad with the Phantom 2 assistant.

    This should correct the issue.

    Try recalibrating your remote controller like this:



    When you're ready to shut down the motors, hold the left stick down for 3-5 seconds. If you do a CSC, the motors could spin like that.

    Same thing happened to me after a firmware update. My sticks on my controller ended up being backwards after download. Reprogram my controller and it worked for me.
