    How to check skycontroller 2 battery with test meter

    I believe the flashing means it is balance charging. I would leave it on and see if turns green once it's fully charged. then once connected to FFP you can see if it is fully charged. Also scroll down on this page and there is some battery info that might be helpful...

    New user wants to fly!

    The first update method says "Note: The FreeFlight Pro app must have been connected at least once to the drone to scan for updates." you can't connect so that's why you are not seeing the update tab. you will need to use the second method to do an update. My connection procedure is, turn on...

    Video doesn't start when i take off.

    I would suggest connecting your BB2 to your computer and verify that the BB2 memory is not full of video-images. You should test video-image recording without flying.

    Bebops Follow Me system not working

    To reset your drone, switch it on and wait for the light to stop flashing. Then, hold the ON/OFF button down for 10 seconds. After doing this, the BEBOP 2's light will flash and the drone will restart. you shouldn't have to do anything to get follow me to work. If your phone is compatible...

    fly from outdoors to indoors

    I have not tried this but obviously as soon as you fly inside you will loose gps lock. I would suggest finding an open area indoors where you can try flying without gps and see how that goes. Even with gps, flying down a hallway of a house would take some skill. It would also be a good idea to...

    Newbie Bebop 2 Connection Question

    I have only used RTH a couple of times so I'm no expert. Are you landing and still not able to connect? How about turning it off and back on again?

    Newbie Bebop 2 Connection Question

    do you have wifi off and airplane mode on , on your phone/tablet? I believe in the most recent firmware update when the bebop 2 goes into return to home you can't reconnect until it has returned.

    Losing connection after flying 30 meters? (Smartphone)

    only thing I can suggest is check your max distance setting and make sure geofence is turned off.
