If all calibrations have been run, it still might be a good idea to upload the flight logs. See post #23 above.

Did you do a fresh compass calibration?

Flying mode only changes which stick on the controller generates the signals. Nothing changes on the drone. You would see no difference related to ESC/motors/IMU.

Which arm is having problems?

Any idea the cause?

At least one of them is jammed. Remove one, see if the other will move. If not remove it and install the other to see if it moves. Lots of things can go wrong with the landing gear actuator. Most often they just need to have the mechanical pressure released and some lubrication. Other...

"where the camera was are 3 plain black wires which I was told the optional belly cable replaces the connection that those 3 wires are hanging from." It sounds like you may already be aware of the key issue. But you could also review "CGo3 Removing the Three Black Wires" for details. "I can...

"I get 5 rotor mode right away." Are the motors actually running? It is normal for a TH to get lots of weird noise and "emergency stop" if motors are started without props mounted. "Still does not want to get out of Acquiring Mode" If the drone has been sitting powered on, outside, and with a...

The version number of the firmware includes the region code. "A" is US firmware. "E" is EU firmware.

Sad. But new Flight control boards are not too expensive, and they are pretty easy to change out. "https://www.ebay.com/itm/297714048740?"

The most common problem is the USB cord type. A common phone charging USB cord will not work. It has to be a data capable USB cord. The two types are not marked in any way I know of and appear to be visually indistinguishable from each other. If you can use the USB cord to view and...

Yeah. I think you are right. Never mind my previous post.

What camera do you currently have? Are you certain your Q500 is a Q500+? The Q500+ came with a CGo3. If the drone is a Q500+ it should already have the mount contacts to allow normal use of a CGo3. If the contacts are not built into the mount, there is a pig-tail attachment used to adapt the...

It sounds like the safest thing is to dispose of that battery and replace it with a new one. If you are not extremely familiar with LiPo batteries the consequences and probability of a serious mishap far outweigh the cost of a new battery.

@DoomMeister knows more about which Mantis models, which App versions work with which smartphones/tablets. But here are some links to at least some files. 'Mantis Files"
