Parrot AR.Drone 2.0: How can I fix my drone after crashing into water?

Wed, 21 Feb 2018 05:46:36 -0700

My AR Drone 2 has crashed into water. I put it for a week in a tight plastic bag with some rice trying to dry it out. However, seems something went seriously wrong as when I connect the battery it didn't respond at all.

Now, first how can I tell which part has been damaged?

second: what is the best way to fix that?

Many thanks

Parrot AR.Drone 2.0: AR drone 2.0 board to board connector - need to solder it back

Sat, 16 Sep 2017 07:04:08 -0700

Hey,

So today I flew my ar.drone 2.0 around and had a crash.

After the crash I got "PIC watchdog emergency" notification on the screen.

Disassembled the thing and noticed that the board-to-board connector partly chipped off the PCB taking some of the solder pads with it.

Has anyone had similar issue or experience with fixing the ar drone 2.0 PCB?

Are there any PCB schematics on the Internet? I didn't have luck with finding any.

Thanks in advance!

Parrot AR.Drone 2.0: Why does my AR Drone start flying at an angle?

Sat, 14 Oct 2017 01:01:51 -0700

Recently I went to fly my AR Drone 2.0, as soon as a pressed Take Off, the propellers started spinning and the drone started moving at an angle (one corner of the drone was still touching the ground). Three of the propellers made the drone lift a tiny bit whereas the other proppeler was spinning but it didn't lift the drone.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Parrot AR.Drone 2.0: Why does the iPhone/android app shows a quick drop in battery and stop

Sat, 28 Jan 2017 10:12:12 -0700

I have both AR drone 1 and AR drone 2. I used the AR free flight app in iphone 5s , and Nexus 5. It flies for few seconds . The app shows a quick battery drop and the quadcopter stops working. The problem is more serious in iphone app. In android app I found that the quadcopter can hover for few extra seconds (around 10-15 s) even at the end of its life (1-2% battery life). But when I plug off the battery connection and connect again, the battery is again normal (has only decreased 2-3%). But when I take off, the same problem ( battery immediately drops off). Just to make sure it is not the battery problem, I tried another spare battery, and the problem is same- QUICK DISCHARGE shown by both android and iphone app. Is it problem with the app or battery, or electronics in the AR drone? What is the solution to this .

Parrot AR.Drone 2.0: take off but not up anymore

Wed, 30 Dec 2015 12:18:42 -0700

For some reason "and i dont remember any significant crash or tumble before this started " when i hit take off, it moves and angles sharp in the direction of the right rear blade, with very little altitude . I noticed the blade there was bowed with the tips up and that the chassis for the motor, blade, etc would pivot on the rail as well as slide a bit in and out. I super glued the chassis in place and did what i could to straighten the blade but it is still angling and moving hard to the right rear blades direction on takeoff. GOT A CLUE? A SUGGESTION? SOMETHING? ANYONE?

Parrot AR.Drone 2.0: Datasheet for ar drone 2.0?

Sat, 05 Dec 2015 15:23:28 -0700

Does somebody have a datasheet for my parrot ar drone 2.0, I think it's a f-mosfet related problem.

I reversed te polarity of my drone.. And I found that the f-mosfet was burned so I replaced it but it still doesn't work... I found that when the battery was plugged in that the GND of the f-mosfet is NOT connected to the gnd of the battery is that normal ?

Thanks !

Parrot AR.Drone 2.0: 1 motor Cut Off Emergency

Sun, 01 Nov 2015 11:06:43 -0700

I have the Parrot AR Drone 2.0 Power Edition. When I turn it on, all motors show a green light on the bottom indicating they are ready to go. When it starts to calibrate, partially spinning each motor 1,2,3,4 motor 2 does not move at all.

I made sure all the gears are clear of any debris, there are no errors showing for the motor in the android application, however the screen on the android app shows cut off emergency if I try to "Take off" after the calibration is done.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9vpj3fj...

I found a video where it shows the rod that goes through the center of the motor does not move with the motor like it should, thus not making the gear spin, in turn spinning the blades. Is it a good bet that this is my problem.

I have contacted parrot and they are sending me a replacment motor, however I do not want to wait 2 weeks to start flying again.
