Hi i'm a new pilot and i crashed my vision 2+ and wrecked the camera on my 1st flight. Now i'm flying without a camera installed and i have a few questions...
i calibrate my compass and then i get flashing green rear leds but the manual seems to say i should be getting yellow flashing since i'm flying in non gps mode (no camera). But i am in out of the box phantom mode just without a camera so do i have gps or no and why please... and how does gps mode vs non gps mode affect me if i have to turn off the tx...
Also sometimes i get 1 green flashing rear led while flying and i wonder what the bird is trying to tell me -the other led stays solid green when this happening...
When i start up and the bird goes from solid yellow to rapidly flashing green is that it establishing a home point or counting satellites -again all this without a camera ...
In the daylight how can i see what the leds under the phantom are doing everything seems to happen so quick and the bird is sitting on the ground! i know i could put the turkey on a mirror but realistically am not going to be carrying a large mirror around for takeoff...
I appreciate anybody taking the time to read and or respond to me and my stupid questions one day when my knowledge and experience are more developed i will pay this favor forward to some other faceless newbie... right now quite frankly this flying thing scares the **** out of me
