So you do have compass sensor readings? I think the gyro is supposed to have zeroes unless you're moving it.

I don't understand how you're able to even take off then? What happens when you try to calibrate your compass? Mine says intense electromagnetic interference and fails to calibrate and I can't even get the props to spin.

So did you end up repairing it or sending it to DJI?

Yeah it's just frustrating as hell, I had an event that I planned for and purchased 3 more batteries and a new charger, carrying case, and other accessories and got ~1 hour of footage, when my intent was to be in the air for as long as possible. I was hoping to come out with several hours of...

Yeah I purchased it from a authorized dealer on amazon and think I might have more luck going to them first. I'm so sick of this crap, it's completely turning me away from the hobby.

Yeah... I have tried that about 3 dozen times. But from my understanding is that it does not matter since the sensor values are all zero anyways.

Hello everyone, I received my Phantom 3 Standard about 2 months ago, and out of the box I always experienced intermittent compass issues. Recently I have been completely unable to fly due to this errors, and upon further digging I saw that the compass sensor values were all zero. I read online...

I will say, I was out flying my drone earlier tonight, and I noticed like 15 wifi hotspots in my backyard from neighbors, 15 ft from my launch point. However I have flown other places with (what I imagine to be) zero interference and still get compass errors and bad FPV. Really psyched to see if...

Yeah I have been getting in the habit of doing that with my iPhone 5s

Not yet but I will be trying tomorrow when I hit up Minneapolis and get some US Bank stadium shots. Going to use my sister's iPad air.

Thanks, out of frustration I downgraded the Phantom firmware to 1.5.7.0+ or whatever the last one was. Seems to be getting better performance on the video downlink, although still experiencing intermittent compass errors.

Hello all, I joined the DJI community about a month ago with the introduction of the Phantom 3 Standard to my RC collection. So far it takes great looking still images and video, however the DJI Go app can be a royal pain in the ***. I see many people complaining about the updates that DJI...
