Just saying hi. Friend put me onto this site after i was having trouble with my phantom 2.
UPDATE on this rat piece of crap.
When i bought this drone used last week it work on my friend's android fine. Kept getting Fatal system error, thought i'd fixed it....soo wrong. Today when i finally got the thing airborne it decide to stay hoovering at 360ft and not come. After panicking a bit i switched of the S2 switch which gave me control back.
So tonight i thought i'll check foe updates. Said there was one for the main controller. So pressed upgrade and it told me to connect controller which i did and nothing, zip nada no response. Pressed it again and said connect controller again. So thought must mean drone (and the controller must be something inside drone to communicate with remote) and it started upgrading and all went tits up. Now all its doing is beeping like a ***** and won't communicate at all. So now i think its not an expensive paperweight. All reason i didn't buy a new Phantom 3 is coz this one had spare batteries, case and camera is good enough.
Rant over.....don't buy one
UPDATE AGAIN
Managed to reflash the firmware using older software. figured it's a flying computer so treated as one
