    2nd hand cameras?

    Thanks Sandy but 350GBP for a good condition 2nd hand camera equates to $720AUD, and I can buy brand new via Amazon & Ebay for $730AUD or direct from DJI for $900AUD, so thanks for replying and thanks for the offer, but not value for money from this side of the world I'm afraid!

    So I have just returned from an amazing few days of flying my P3P along the beautiful West Australian coastline.... but unfortunately my P3P is missing its camera... Had an unfortunate wipe-out with an unforseen tree branch, which sent the bird crashing to the ground. See attached photo of the...

    P3 Firmware RC firmware will not update

    Hi all. Have updated the firmware on my P3A and all four batteries, but trying to update the RC using the DJI GO App and it just will not update. Shows 'normal'. Is there any way to force an update on the RC? Or can I leave it as it is (with 2 versions of firmware being used)? I also run a...

    Phantom 3 Professional Firmware v1.5.0030

    Thanks. You are a great help. Not even managed to get the rotors spinning on this thing yet - has been driving me crazy. I have checked the 'about' in Settings and it says App Version 2.4.2 and RC Version 1.5.70 - Shouldn't it should say 1.5.30?

    Phantom 3 Professional Firmware v1.5.0030

    Hi Tryn. You seem to be 'in the know' with this stuff. Having issues upgrading my RC. Using the USB method, and the red light never changes colour, and after a few minutes the RC starts beeping due to lack of use. Have then used the "How To' link above to use the DJO GO method, and the 'Overall...

    T Thanks MJB. Where do I find the instructions? There is nothing on DJI.com as all the instructions relate to V1.4 not 1.5..? Cheers

    Phantom 3 Professional Firmware v1.5.0030

    Thanks for your help. I had no idea the beeps were normal. I just assumed something was wrong. I will try again tonight. Where should I be looking for the best 'instructions' to do these sorts of things? Is there one source of information that it the best? Cheers

    20% off through DWI....

    Thanks Jeriami. Appreciate your response, and yes you give great advice. But the DJI page refers to dealers / distributors, not retailers. DJI is silent on retailers. There are only 4 dealers in Australia listed, but there are dozens and dozens of retailers - big brand national names, not micky...

    20% off through DWI....

    Hi Jeriami - I have just looked on dji.com and cannot find anything about warranty being void unless purchased through an authorised agent. Can you please point me in the direction of where this is stated? There are a number of conditions listed, and this is not one of them... Cheers

    20% off through DWI....

    Thanks Jeriami - that exactly what I was looking for in an answer. I don't want to risk a warranty problem either. The probem is that DJI have just put all their dealer prices up - increased from $1950AUD to $2199AUD, and I am really unhappy with having to pay $250AUD more today than I would...

    20% off through DWI....

    Hi. Notice that DWI has 20% off all DJI products until the end of the month. I have used them I the past with no issues, but I am concerned what would happen with things like 'flyaways' etc if I did not make the purchase through an authorised dealership. Any thoughts anyone?
