Hello,
I'm french and I have a Phantom 2 Vision + bought on ebay.
All seems to be ok:
- No error on the android app
- Upgrade of all components successfull (only Zen IMU Hardw ID -1)
- Calibration procedure OK

When I do the start command, the 4 rotors starts but when I push the throttle to the maximum position motor increase speed the phantom stay down.
Have you any idea ?

Best regards,
Damien

Check your transmitter mode; if they are different than what you are expecting you might be pushing the forward/back when you think you are pushing the throttle.

I'm guessing you calibrated the controller? If not, possibly do it via RC Assistant and Assistant software.

check if you have installed propellers properly. Black to black motor, silver to silver otherwise it will not take off. It will be pushed down.

You cannot get the propellers screwed on the wrong motors.  They are clockwise and counter clockwise threads.

The threads are left and right handed. It is not possible  unless it is the earlier phantom with the bolt on props.

Hello,
Thank you for all your answers.
I verified my remote, it was in mode 2. Do you think that it's reversed and that the stick to take off is on the left ?
The remote has been properly calibrated. For the moment a propellers is broken, so I can't make another test. I wait my yesterday command with a new pair of propeller

In mode 2 the throttle is on the left-side stick, you can change modes using the Vision Assist app.

Information in the modes is in the manual

So you were trying to take off with the right side stick?
