Last year I experienced a fly-away with my P2V. After shutting it down and it going into RTH mode, it didn't clear the trees (over 100' tall!) and was firmly lodged in the branches. I wrote it off as a learning experience.
Last month someone called me asking if I ever got my Phantom back. I said no. Someone found it laying in the brush in the trees and with no way to tell who's it was....they proceeded to try and get it flying.
Long-story short....I got it back. Pulled it apart, cleaned up what needed to be cleaned (it was upside down so the motors took on no moisture it appears!). Fired her up.....she flies great! burned through 2 batteries testing it, running em down to 10%. over 40 min!
The camera and telemetry won't work though. I'm thinking it's a binding problem. I bought a new remote, wifi-repeater and whatnot, went through the binding process and it says "successful", but it's not working.
I'm using the QR code that was on the box, but I don't think that's it. I can't get it to scan the camera because the QR code is so **** small.
Any ideas? Oh yeah.....I think there's a wire or ribbon cable missing from this thing but can't find any open pics of a P2V. They're all P2, or P2V+.
Here's what I have now.
