Phantom crash in the water

[Ti@goo]

Hello people,

Unfortunately I was one of the lucky ones that got their phantom to "auto-land" while above water (sea).

Luckilly I was able to recover the phantom. It stayed for a week in rice and also sprayed with nano protech.

I only hat to switch an ESC and the motors maybe in the future. After mounting all it gives me green lights in one arm and yellow in another. After I tuned into the software the lights were red-red and beeps. After 2 days I switched it on and now it gives me the green and yellow lights.

Never ssen this and can`t find anything in the manual.

Do you know what this means?

In this vídeo i did not have the radio on, but with radio on the lights are the same. If i unplug the servo wires coming from the receiver, LED and EXP the lights continue. if i unplug the motors ir gives me red lights flashing and beeps.

The Phantom can normally send signals to the front two lights or the back two lights independently. If one side is acting different than the other side (left/right), then that means that the ESC on one side is having issues.

I learned this by studying http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2269089 and http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2264946.
