Well, I never wanted to update anything... I opened the app and it asked me to update everything in order to make it work... I hate having to update my bird, it's always risky with these unstable firmware updates. I'll try what you said :)

Hey, Looks like I have new problems every new summer! I'm posting on my boat right now. Just finished an awful P3A flight above the sea... before going to vacation, I properly updated the bird to FW 1.11.20 + batteries + remote. So I started the bird on a flat rock in the middle of the sea, and...

This is actually the opposite thing, you're completely wrong. The focal length of the P3 drones corresponds to a 20mm lens on a full frame sensor. Which is actually an extremely short focal length (more simply, a wide angle). Justly, objects in front of you will appear extremely far away from...

I guess it would do. :) But.. Yeah. Really upset about these lags and glitches, it's really concerning.

I don't really like custom mode, cause if the channel you're on gets unstable, you're most likely to f*ck your phantom ..

I'm in the same location as last last year, and I don't remember any lag or delay. I had great flights last year! The only thing that has changed since, is the phone I use, (I had a 5S last year) and also the USB module on the controller that I replaced, (the original one was defective). Your...

Hey, It's been a year since I haven't flied my P3A. I updated to v.1.9 before flying again. During the year, I had a new iPhone, (the 6S). When I did my first flight yesterday, I noticed a lot of sudden jumps, black and even green bars going through the screen, stops, huge delay (sometimes 7...

Hehe, our problem probably comes from that. I would advise to use our iPhones after full charge, reasonable temperature, al apps closed, screen brightness set to 3/4 max. (I noticed brightness set to maximum is often responsible for overheating..) And why not rebooting the phone before use.

Are you experiencing this issue when you're flying in direct sunlight ?

Hey, Just got rid of a really annoying USB module issue on my controller, and my P3A is now ready to fly. I'm running the latest version, 1.9, and 1.6 for the controller. I'm impatient to fly again, something I didn't do for a YEAR now. :( So, I'd just like to know if people here had any...

Okay, new update. Just like 1000 other users complaining on other forums, the problem came from the USB - HDMI module being "broken" by the lastest firmware update. Nothing could be connected to the USB port, neither my iPhone, nor any USB pen reader. So, as I'm still in Corsica, on vacation, I...

There's one thing I'd like to add.. When I plug my iPhone cable inside the RC USB port, there's no "trust this device?" message and no connection "notification" (no vibration, no sound...) Suggesting the USB doesn't even recognize the device.

Thanks again. I wasn't able to update to 1.2.3. I tried with my USB pen reader, and nothing happened: nothing to read in the SD card, no text file created. Then, I tried your method (updating with the sub cable, with the bird), and again, no results no blue led, no text file in the SD. I'm...

Ok, tried to install v 1.3.2 with a usb pen reader, and nothing happened. It must be the USB pen not working, or .. the usb of the RC..

Yep, I have a pen drive. I'm going to update with this. When it's done, how to update to 1.6 then?
