Phantom 2 Vision Plus with Gopro and FPV

[crash1sttime]

I came across this thread from RC geeks showing how to remove the Vision Plus camera and replace it with a Gopro and still get FPV.

I was lucky enough to pick up a P2 with a zenmeuse gimbal and decided to try it, and sure enough it works, albeit with a few small issues.

You cant use an IOS device, well to be precise you can but you wont, for some unknown reason, get Telemetry data (works fine on Android) and you can't enable recording from the app.

You can still use Litchi, Ultimate Flight app as well as the original DJI Vision app.

On mine, I trashed the whole Wifi module, put in an aftermarket OSD module hooked up to a 2.4Ghz Vtx and I used a SJ5000 camera.
It works flawlessly!
I still have that bird, and it still flies.

Here is a video I did that shows the screen on my phone along with the camera recorded video....

Do you have any documented details of this? (Apologies if I've missed it in my searching)
I've got a dead WiFi module and I don't seem to be able to find any definite guide on getting rid of it and replacing with a generic Vtx.
I've got a perfectly good P2V+ other than this module.

There a lots of guides in the Phantom 2 section, remember that Ron used a 2.4ghz system (not widely available) instead of the usual 5.8ghz system as this will interfere with the controller.

The module can be repaired by flashing, the guide is on my youtube channel

Thanks. Unfortunately I've tried multiple times to reflash the WiFi module but it keeps coming up with...

I can't remember everything from when I did this, but can help you if you still have some will to proceed. Your first task is to boot Linux on that board using "Recovery Root Filesystem". Where did you stopped?
