Hi,

Just today I bought a used Phantom 2 Vision. I powered it up and all it did was beep. I tried to connect it to the computer, but with no luck. The computer didn't even recognize it. I downloaded the Phantom 2 Assistant, RC Assistant and DJI Windows Driver. My computer runs w10. If anyone can help, that would be great!!!

Does the RC work in the RC Assistant? If not then it's not installed correctly.
Was this tested before you purchased it and verified to work and now it doesn't?
The beeping could mean a centerboard malfunction.

It doesn't. When it turns on, it doesn't even make the normal start-up noise. The LEDs just flash on and off super fast, then stay off, and the drone beeps maybe every second.

Do you think that performing a hard reset would to the trick?

I bought it knowing that it wouldn't work and mainly for extra props, but then I figured I might try to get it to work. ;)

Hello billovanbob, could you record a short video clip of the beeping and led flashing?

Hi,

Here is the video of the flash and beeping... I'm almost positive it's a firmware problem, unless you have any other ideas...http://mytechvideoserver.blogspot.com/p/videos.html

It does sound like a possible center board or ESC issue. If you are unable to get the unit to connect to the Assistant software to reapply/update firmware, then it may need to be sent in for service.

How much would it cost to send it in??

The hard reset didn't work, and it 's still not connecting to the Assistant...
