Vision app seems connected. I haven’t tested RTH. photos can be taken but black screen when flying. Great drone and I want to keep it airworthy. Wifi connectivity seems ok photos download okay. Any ideas much appreciated.

Hi, @aird, I think your Wi-Fi module needs to be re-flashed. DJI phantom 2 vision plus no video feed fix. Hope this helps

Cool hope the video helps. I have had a similar problem in times passed with my P2v+

Contact @Droneted if you need the re-flashing. Had the same issue with my P2V+ and he helped me. Great service.

Besides the above problem, your modern mobile device may not be compatible with your 2014 drone.

Good luck.

I ran into the exact same issue during my Vision+ restoration last year. As stated above, it almost certainly is an issue with the Wi-Fi module, as I replaced mine and it was fixed. One thing you might have to be mindful of, though, is that there are two different versions of the Vision+; the V2.0 (early production drones were labeled V1.1.1) and V3.0 (there was no V1.0, though it is implied to have been the original Vision). The V3.0 has a slightly different Wi-Fi module with perforations for cooling (I think), while the V2.0 has a smooth casing. I suspect the two modules are interchangeable, as I have been able to substitute unavailable V2.0 sensors (namely the compass and GPS modules) with their V3.0 counterparts with no issues, but I recommend using the version intended for your model if at all possible just to be safe.

You can identify your drone's exact model by looking at the serial number sticker. V2.0 drones are marked with either "V1.1.1" or "V2.0", while V3.0 drones are marked with "V3.0". The only other external difference between the two models is that the V2.0 has an exposed, silver-colored compass module on its right landing leg, while the V3.0's compass module is fully enclosed in a white casing.

Here is an image showing the difference between a V2.0 and V3.0 Wi-Fi module.

Yes you can use either with no ill effects, the vented unit was just built for places with high temperatures

, but I recommend using the version intended for your model if at all possible just to be safe.

No its fine as i said any unit will work irregardless
