Hi everyone. New to this game apart from a nano drone.
Just got a second hand bebop 2 and can't wait for the weather to improve !
I've noticed when it lifts up it lands and cuts out straight away. Is that a battery issue ? .
Thanks in anticipation.

Hi mark
you say the bebop 2 is second hand, do you know it’s history at all?
if not what I would suggest you do a reset, all you have to do is press the power button and when the light stops flashing and is constant hold the button in for 15 seconds then let go, this will take a few minutes and this should rest the drone, there are quite a few videos on you tube on how to do this, hope this helps good luck
 
oh ok that’s great. I’ll give that a go. Someone has suggested battery issues too.
many thanks, I’ll let you know.
Happy new year

Hi Mark
Happy new year
you mentioned it could be a battery issue that could very well be the case, as your drone was second hand ( as were all of mine ) the batteries do not last forever, and being second hand you would not know how the batteries have been treated/charged/cycled, not sure how many batteries you have ?
but if take a good look at the back of the battery if you find swelling of any kind i believe this means that the cells are damaged inside ( I must admit I am no expert just picked up a little knowledge 🤣)
hope this helps ?
 
Hi thanks for that ! I reckon that’s it. Someone tested them and they’re shot.
I’ve got a cheap second hand one and have had my first flight yesterday 😬
just need to cough up a fortune for a new one now 🤦‍♂️
Managed to download the video too.
I adore this thing !
kind regards

Hi Mark

Welcome to the forum, and glad you got your battery issue sorted! The bebop 2 is a great drone - I really enjoyed mine before I got the Anafi. Such a shame Parrot's left the consumer drone market. Enjoy!
