Received this camera looking pretty dire condition. Lots of stuff. Nice of Parrot to have a take apart video cause I didn't know what it looked like period. Interesting repairs by son-in-law. Soldered the antenna coax cables, center conductor to shield to like of the broken part. One motor lead had interesting solder job where the wire broke and next to that a couple of bare wires from that motor to the bare solder glob.
So here's the goods.
In the one photo, you'll see where son-in-law has sliced the camera cable to remove the antennas. I did the update to 6.7.5. I don't know if that updates the drone board or not.
Results are that I don't get any 'take off' response. And it's whining in the App on the phone about the Vertical Camera not working. Will it fly without the Vertical Camera? (last photo of the chunked cable)
I don't find any references as to how to "arm" the drone, or for that matter, what the stick arrangement is for manual control. Trying it in my shop, just sits there with a nice video of the gimbal camera.
Any ideas please?

I don't know if you have seen any of these pdf files, but they may be able to help with your problems. You should be able to open these by just clicking on them.

Hope this is helpful,
