Hello everyone! I’m having trouble with my second-hand Phantom 4 Pro (P4P) drone. Despite hoping to fix it, I’ve encountered several issues. I’m using a Phantom 4 Pro with a GL300F controller, and while I can connect the Go 4 app and see sensor feedback, there’s no video feed, SD card recognition, or GPS signal. Additionally, the camera buttons (record, image, camera angle, menu, C1, C2) are unresponsive. I attempted a firmware update, but it got stuck at 64%, and the drone turned off and on with red lights on the arms. If anyone has faced this issue and found a solution, please let me know. Otherwise, I might consider selling it for parts.
 
Need to confirm if the problem is the remote 300F or the drone P4P. Would help if you can try (link) another remote to confirm. Can use 300F/E or 300C vB. Or link your remote to a different P4P.

To verify what you have. Not uncommon that you have something different than what you think.

Hi. As per my previous post, you've got a P4P Pro. Or so DJI says. Same model number as my two. It's becoming difficult these days to buy spare parts as some are classified as P4P and others as P4P Pro, even when they are the opposite. That's why I contacted DJI to confirm what model I have. Finding genuine DJI parts is also becoming more difficult as there are a lot of claimed "genuine" parts, which actually are not. That's why I bought a broken P4P Pro because I hope it has all real genuine parts on it which I'll use for spares. My thoughts are, try to find a P4P Pro that's broken and use it for spares and repair your one. The Phantoms are still good Drones even though they are getting a bit on in years.

Gimbal and gps points to power board behind battery connections. Look for burnt components or discolored areas, looose or broken conn.
