I have had the same issues as many on this forum. Battery not charging, lights stopping flashing etc. I thought I'd start with the battery replacement and as people have said you can't buy the 6000mah lipo that's originally in there. People have said there are 3 main issues, bad battery, bad...

It may have been within 20m. Will do a check tomorrow to test it again

This setting is enabled ? Strange

Not sure what the a/c version was but originally the remote was 1.5.8. I downgraded the a/c to 1.8 but left the remote on 1.6 as it seemed to be working fine

Yes I understand that but thought it did a return to home when the battery got to a level that it needed to travel back

Just took my p3a out for a while and got the low battery warning, then the critical warning. It said it was landing in 10 seconds. I thought when the battery got to a certain point it automatically did a return to home sequence? ? Am I missing something ?

I just downgraded to 1.8 from 1.9.6 all seems OK but have not flown it yet. Only thing I noticed was that before my upgrade to 1.9.6 it said it needed to upgrade rc, aircraft, battery and camera but now I've gone back to 1.8 it only says it needs an aircraft upgrade. Seems as if the battery...

I am not sure what the firmware of the phantom was (did not check before upgrade) It was only bought last week, I know I had to upgrade it all including rc and that was on the last version. Was thinking of downgrading it because of rumours with range and restricted zones As soon as I upgraded...

Hear some people have lost flight range after updating to this firmware. Anyone had this or other problems ?

As I had to update the phantom, camera and batteries will it still be OK to roll back the firmware ? Are these firmwares all for the phantom 3 advanced ? Many thanks for this

Has anyone got any links to earlier p3a firmwares. I have just updated to 1.9.6 but am now reading some horror stories so a link to older firmwares would be grateful if I run into any problems Thanks in advance

Only had my p3a for 2 days all seemed perfect with it but kept getting annoying firmware update messages So I have updated to 1.9.6, have not flown it yet but as soon as it powered on got a pop up about restricted zone and to check a couple of tick boxes. I live 20 miles away from anything I...

Thanks this seems to work a treat. Have not flown it yet are there any lag problems ?

I have the other way. Camera in 4:3 picture is good. When switched to video picture crap. Will try what you said

Thanks will give this a try
