Had the drone a week or 2 used it and no problems went to use it the next day it made a beep but then went duh dum
I took of the cover and it looks like the flight controller is burnt
I’ve tried to boot load but it won’t connect to computer tried to force boot load but computer won’t recognise devices
Hi Johnny,
Oh no, that’s really frustrating to hear about your GepRC Vapour, especially after only having it for a couple of weeks and it flying fine before. I can imagine how disappointing it must be to see what looks like a burnt flight controller.
You’re right, a burnt MCU (the main chip on the flight controller) is a tricky one. We’re currently waiting to hear back from GepRC on a similar case. Typically, they see issues like this when there’s been an external short – sometimes from things like damp long grass, debris, or an unfortunate crash. This can make warranty claims a bit more complex, as they often view it as external damage.
To help us make the strongest possible case for you with GepRC, could you snap a few more photos showing the overall condition of the quad? This will give us a good picture to share with them and show how the drone has been looked after.
As soon as we have those, we’ll get in touch with GepRC directly and see what they advise. We’ll keep you in the loop!
Kind Regards,
Unmanned Tech Support
