Vision2 plus: I was on a 11 point ground mission. I was following the drone and at about way point 9 it suddenly started to desend. i was unable to be quick enough to flip rite toggle on remote to take out of mission mode and go manual.  I had about 20% left on battery and the return home on low battery unchecked in dji assistant. my only thought is that it was  on a mission and did not think it could make it back to homepoint, there fore started to land. a house got in its way, it hit house, rolled down on the porch cover and hit the driveway.  2 props broke, the battery ejected, but everything else looked in tact.  I got home and no spare props. put battery back in, a little tight to push in.  fired it up and all engines go. problems: camera does not initiate, nor does the wifi connect to phone. I believe i can still fly it. I have some probs ordered so will see. All lights seem to be functioning correctly as it seems to be be picking up sattlelites. The camera looks in tact and perfect with no scratches on it at all. thoughts?

Sorry to hear of your crash. Just to clarify, were you using the Go app or a 3rd party app?

I use both apps but was using the Litchie, I have done a bunch of missions using the app. No issues. Question, on a mission, at what battery level will the drone try to land?  Any thoughts on what is going on with Camera and wifi? I watched some videos on you tube and my guess on wifi is that it it landed smack on the top, on the DHI Logo sticker, opposite side of landing gear, and below the top cover is where the module is that is responsible for the wifi. I had a tech say that I may have just jolted something loose.  Whats your thoughts on me opening it up and seeing if anything looks unplugged?  And then on camera, so happy that the actual camera unit looks perfect along with the gimbal, but it does not initiate. where is the controller located for it in the drone, and could it have been knocked loose? thanks,

you need to rebind it camera to the wifi extender do not open the camera unless you know what you are doing, as for the mission you were on, the drone and equpiment doesn't have a lot of memory so it was close to the 20% discarge of the battery and came down before it reached it, check to make sure the camera and it plugins are all connected

the module under the lid is the GPS module, it has nothing to do with wifi that is where you get the sattlets

thanks but video i saw on line says the the module under lid does control the Wifi too.  My camera has no power so it may be unplugged from the module under lid as i know all three of those plugs from camera go to that module. I think the module controls more than just the GPS. not sure if we are talking about the same part.  I got 4 new props and it is picking up satelites and flies great, just not camera, not picking up wifi so cannot connect to phone, see video of course, and cannot use any phone programs.

The Wal-Mart near me has the blades in stock less than seven bucks a set.
