I'm interested in knowing too. I dont need a repair, just wondering what would happen if I do. (I suspect few read the forum?)

Blue button is on. Red button, hold for 3 2 1, is off. I just pressed right arrow, then blue, got a 3 option menu. Left arrow and blue turns it on....seems like left arrow aspect does nothing. Same stuff with red does nothing. Just turn on with blue. Off with red. Good to hear it works!

Any results, or no time to try it yet? If the cable you were using charges the batteries, thats likely not the problem. And if thats the case, I wonder if the battery in the beacon has died while in storage. I'm no expert on batteries, but that's all I can think of as likely problem.

Dunno....the other day I got some sorta similar message (didn't say deleting..seemed some sorta error) I ignored it, all seemed fine during flight but when I landed and pulled out the card, it had some LVF files (or whatever they are) but no MP4s. Flew again...no error message, but same result...

Have you tried a different cable? The one that came with S2 and that charges the batteries should work. If its not the cable, then IDK. Where'd you get a brand new beacon?

If it were my drone, I'd want the gimbal secured some way so it doesn't bounce around.

Why use case for landing? I just catch my drone every time...unless its ran away and landed itself. On the point of the original post...outta X# landings, 1 went astray? Seems like just a random error...kinda like the kinda thing we civilians were 'employed' (on our dime) to flush out.

I had same issue as what you originally posted in this thread. Could fly with beacon and app, but controller won't connect to my rugged phone (Kyocera Duraforce Pro2). I fiddled around with things today and suspect the version of the OS in my phone is incompatible with the latest update to S2...

Lock Beacon might be good. Thanks Ken!

Wow! Sounds very similar. I was very lucky mine stopped within earshot, and lucky it was a totally calm day so I could hear it. Theoretically, a RTH setting of 'return to point connection was lost and hover as long as possible' SHOULD result in the drone being findable. Assuming the GPS setting...

Can you please clarify what you are looking at that is indicating that 'it ain't HDR at all'? I always use VLC to review my vids and the codec info is the same for each, but what indicates whether its real HDR or pseudo HDR? See below. Skydio's response to my inquiry about why my replacement...

Thanks Chris! You're actually correct about the 'guest riders'. He is a friend of a guy who I have known for a few years. It was gonna just be me and him, then all of a sudden this other guy was coming. Theres a pretty good backstory that'll have ya shakin your head....hopefully I'll be able...

Appreciate the offer Chris! Would love to come down some day, but it aint gonna be soon. Thanks for the offer tho!! A guy slammed his bike into my left leg when I stopped quickly due to almost missing a turn in the blowing sand at WW. I didnt hear him behind me, so its not like he was right...

I have an S22. It fits into the arm, but barely, and I am afraid it will fall out, so heres what I did to make it secure. Thats a strip of drywall corner protector trimmed and gorilla glued on. Maybe you could similarly extend the top of the cradle arm with something U shaped that would hold...

Maybe you just got a faulty S2+. I have no idea, but I'd get ahold of Skydio and see what they say. May not help, but thats about all you can do to hopefully fix, your S2+ (based on this short thread's content and zero research by myself).
