I was able to calibrate the IMU, message said IMU calibrated. But on the summary screen the IMU continued to say error. I sourced a replacement IMU from a "spares" drone, fitted that and it resolved the problem. I also had a Main Controller Data Error message. Underneath the IMU on the...

No, the motors do not start. The app shows everything is good, the Start/GPS field is green. Press take off and slide the bar in the centre of the screen and the ESC Error appears. The motors do not so much as twitch. Do you have a solution????

After posting the above I found a link to a Firmware update P3X_FW_V01.11.0030.bin I downloaded it to an SD card and inserted it into my P3X. It downloaded - deep joy! Once it finished I powered up everything, the FW was updated on the drone. I went to the main screen and attempted a propeller...

I have been repairing a crashed P3 Pro. On completion and powering up I had messages to calibrate the IMU and calibrate the Compass. IMU calibrated no problem. Compass showed an error. I demagnetised it, re-calibrated it and it calibrated. So everything looked good to go. Without the props on I...

Just remembered, as Clasler says above, some of the sellers linked to AliExpress can be scammers. I wanted two Inspire 1 Centre Modules (that lower raise the landing gear) and found a supplier through AliExpress. I ordered two and paid through PayPal. I waited, nothing arrived. I e-mailed the...

I have bought from AliExpress on a number of occasions. Batteries for a P3S can be mega cheap. OK there is VAT to pay (in UK) and postage (which can be very slow). But new batteries for ~£40 is hard to beat. Some people like them, some don't. But if I want to sell a drone then a couple of new...

Please note the plural of battery is batteries. It is not battery's, which is possession eg. using 50% of the battery's charge.

Have you looked on YouTube for help? With P3s there are a number of ways to link the drone and controller. 1. RC Link in DJI GO App and pressing fuselage button. 2. Rolling the camera adjustment wheel to the left, toggling the S2 and pressing the fuselage button. 3. Factory reset, rolling the...

Thanks but no. The Firmware does not even start to update. The WiFi works because the app opens and I can see details for the RC settings, but there is nothing coming from the drone. It says Disconnected. No battery status, no video, cannot enter Max Height, RTH Height, MAX Distance, cannot...

I am trying to refurbish a Phantom 3 Standard. Parts wise it is complete, but I cannot get the drone to link with the controller. I have tried connecting via the RC link in the DJI GO app. I have tried pressing the link button on the craft, then holding the wheel on the left side down then...
