Well, bought a Phanjtom 4 off eBay advertised as 'perfect' and whilst cosmetically it most certainly was unblemished, the remote control when powered up immediately flashed red LED and beeped continuously copmplaining of low voltage. Tried recharging, got the fisrt LED solid second LED flashing scenario.
Contacted seller who to be honest couldn't give a toss, shame really, first eBayer I've met with an atitude like that.
Searched about and decided it was either the Gas Gauge IC or associated circuitry that needed re-flowing or replacing, and as I don't have any surface mount equipment decided to get it repaired. There are a few businesses advertising on line offering GL300C repairs but I plumped for AB Repair (www.phantomrepair.co.uk/) who's site stated -
