I purchased a DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ V3 from Amazon and after 12 minutes of flight have one prop that does not want to turn like the others (appears to be ESC issue).   My ESCs all have the following numbering:   WM 301 BLDC V2  V.

I heard that some newer Phantoms were shipped with the wrong ESCs installed.  Can anyone confirm this?  Do I have the correct ESCs installed?  

I am trying to figure out if all 4 ESCs need to be replaced versus just one.

The white lable on the esc must have v2.1 on it.

My ESCs do not have v2.1 on the label at either end.  Looks like I have the incompatible ESC/motor combination and need to send back to DJI.  I hear it takes about 3 weeks to have repairs done (is that correct?).  Very frustrating, I know I am not alone here.  Any other suggestions welcome; however, I was prepared to replace one ESC on my own, not 4 of them.

I did not tell my P2V+ V3 that it had the wrong ESC's, so I should be okay.  And I'm certainly not going to let it know that the WiFi unit does not have the perforations in the cover for weight reduction.  Or is that for cooling?

2.1 IS the correct version IF you have the new motors

Did you ever replace yours Jeepinocala?

By the way, I'm just East of you in Ormond right at I95, if you are around Ocala.

I was lucky the seller I bought mine from is an actual hobby shop he sent me new esc's and paid for shipping to return the old ones. I am actually just north of ocala Orange lake area.
