There are a few authorized DJI sellers out there that may have them. They will look like this. ***Unless it says Genuine OEM DJI Part # 85, manufactured by DJI, AVOID IT. There are countless knockoffs out there that rarely work correctly.*** ****Plus, if it is listed for $15-$20 it is...

Ok. If it were me, I'd change out the 3rd party ribbon cable to DJI OEM Part #85 'before' I did any firmware changes. Firmware upgrades/downgrades should be a last resort.

Welcome to the Forum. Yes, firmware updates are not recommended since the DJI Phantom 3 series is no longer supported by DJI. Downgrading is possible however. DJI Phantom 3 Standard Accessories & Tips | Phantom Help Check out msingers site 'Phantomhelp.com' for your downgrade...

You may want to post this request in the "Regional Meetups" section on the Forum.........in the 'International' section at the bottom. It may be easier to find a local pilot in your area that will offer their assistance. Good luck.

A clicking sound from the ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) on a DJI Phantom 3 Standard likely indicates a motor or ESC issue. This can be caused by damaged motors, burnt ESC components, or even a problem with the mainboard.

Just need a bit more info to troubleshoot the issues.............. Are the drone and r/c linked? What LED light colors are indicated on the drone, front and rear......and any blink sequence? Does the R/C indicate a green status light? Are you using the DJIGo app.......and does the...

Good to hear it is all sorted out. Blue skies and calm winds...👍👍

Not sure what firmware version you're running, but you may want to consider the following.......

Interesting. Thanks for sharing. 👍👍

The DJI GO app is compatible with the Phantom 3 Pro. You can find the app for download on the DJI website. To use the app, you'll need a compatible mobile device (phone or tablet) running iOS 8.0 or later, or android 4.1.2 or later. Hope this helps.....

@RodPad ......no, I cheated. I used to use an iPad mini 2 also and had the same issue as the OP. The GoApp updated one day and would not work with the iPad mini 2's maxed out updates. So I bought a new iPad. Auto app updates turned OFF. So now, I don't update...

Good point. Might as well do a compass calibration too for a drone that's been idle 8 months as described by the OP.

DJI GO 3 is not compatible with the iPad mini 2. DJI GO 3 requires iPadOS 12.0 or later, while the iPad mini 2 can only be updated to iOS 9.3.5. This means the iPad mini 2 is running an outdated operating system that is not supported by DJI GO 3. The iPad mini 2 is also a 32-bit system...

I'd start by doing an IMU calibration on the drone using the GoApp. Be sure to have the drone level and motionless for the recalibration to be successful.
