droning on...

[vseavello]

I was given a DJI Phantom 1 P330d that was found in a tree somewhere. The drone made its way through several owners before finding its way to me. It had no controller, a burnt out battery, no charger, and no camera. It does have a Storm video transmitter, but I don't have a receiver for it yet.

I have begun to gather missing parts. I found a used B20-4 balance charger online. It, of course, was not functioning when I received it. Looks like someone crossed the polarity when connecting a battery. The filament in the charger had melted. I was able to put a bit of solder on the broken connection and get the charger to work, but I'll have to be very careful not to cross the polarity again. I received a functional battery with the charger, so I now have one battery to play with.

I also purchased a new DJ6 controller. I've been trying for a while to get the controller to pair with the drone, but no luck so far. If anyone has experience with the Phantom 1 P330d, I could use a little guidance.

I am new to drones, so bear with me as I learn the lingo.
