Just got my new v2 P2 and the included phillips screwdriver doesnt fit the screws on the outer corner of each leg. How in the world is this possible? It's their screw and their screwdriver! The flat side doesnt fit it either. Just an FYI.

Hi Jim, you didn't really need a hammer, it will fly itself into the ground at high speed at some point all on its own, and save you the trouble of whacking it!

I have the same problem. The screwdriver is 3mm. The screw on the end the arm is a smaller than 3mm.  What kind of picture do you want Sophie?  Could you tell me what size screwdriver is required for that screw? Thanks.

the screw driver is for mounting the mobile device holder and the Wifi extender to the Tx, not for taking the craft apart.

DJI-JS  If it is for mounting the Wi-Fi extender and mobile device holder to the Tx, why did I get one with my Phantom 2 non-vision since it doesn't have these devices?  And why would they give you the allen wrench to take the other screws out of the case, but then you still can't take it apart because of these screws?  Seems like a bad excuse to me, because my screwdriver doesn't fit those either, but luckily I had a couple nearby that do fit it.  That screwdriver could be really handy if it actually fit any of the screws on the machine.

And a good quality one too. Cheap ones from the thrift or drugstore will not always work

You don't get the screwdriver with the Vision+ or Vision. You only get it with the lower models. On the Vision models the device holder and extender are already mounted so there is no need for a screwdriver at all.

Nope, mine were not mounted. I needed to mount both the range extender and the phone holder. Mind you the screwdriver I got fits the only body screws I had to remove, the ones that hold the propguards.

They must have changed that at some point then, because my P2V+ V3 came with the controller fully assembled with holder and WiFi module

Oh yes you do (I feel a panto moment coming on), I got a nice green rubber handled one with a reversible bit with my Vision unit, and the holder and extender weren't mounted.

my p2v non-plus came (at christmas) with a screwdriver and the phone holder and such were not mounted on the metal bar.

Okay, my mistake. I assumed the plus and non-plus were the same. As I mentioned earlier, my plus came with a controller already fully assembled and no screwdriver
