4 refers to the CSC function, both sticks to the corners for shutdown in flight, extended to 3 seconds.

See how it goes, you might get lucky, I have an aircraft only for sale at present, if you need a replacement contact me, it's as new, with a new shell. John

It's the place to start, the compass pcb is located behind a small cover at the base of the RH leg, if you are getting random compass errors it's the place to start if you can't get it to calibrate. If you can get it calibrated and you fly in open space and get compass errors replace it, it's...

Faulty compass, replace the compass PCB in the RH leg will most likely solve these issues, there was a spate of these recently, possible faulty batch! The PCB is easier to replace than sending it to DJI and if you can solder it can be done in about 30 mins without opening the drone. Other wise...

Faulty Compass, return to DJI or supplier, if you can solder you can change the compass PCB in the RH leg, rather than open up the drone. Either way the compass PCB is faulty.

Make sure you get the correct board as there are two types one for the for the 2312 motors one for the newer 2312A motors. They are not interchangeable!

Basically the Gimbal board is difficult to find, sometimes on eBay as part of a crashed drone or camera, however, there are a lot of them out there with this fault (I have 2!!) Contact DJI Support and send it to them, probably most cost effective repair but will take time, or buy new or...

I have seen many pros exhibiting this behavior, if you look in the hidden log on the SD card you will find devices 8 & 15 not detected. This is a hardware fault on the gimbal PCB that seems to be triggered by the drone being powered up for extended periods without airflow over the gimbal. It...

Yes, two cables to unplug, swap over, plug in the two cables. Put a copy on the p3x firmware on an ad card and power up the drone, Once that's done restart the DJI go app and it will see your drone as a professional.

Don't try and fit a 'Phantom 4K' camera it is not compatible. It needs to be a 'Phantom Pro' camera. Nice and confusing and will catch out the unwary.

Works perfectly!

This happens if the phantom loses communication to one of the modules, chances are the ribbon cable is damaged.

Did you fit a DJI cable or a 'generic'? Do you get a stable image? I messed about with a pro camera for ages trying various fixes for a 'limp' gimbal, fitted a DJI Cable, fixed instantly!

Potentially! If they have upgraded the AC firmware you may need to update the app as according to DJI the firmwares need to me 'similar'. I bought a P3A off eBay and it refused to pair with my RC until I upgraded the AC to the latest version. As the Firmware in the RC was the latest and the AC...
