    Oh, that's interesting! I'm going to try that.

    Using an iPad Mini 6

    I've tried a variety of USB-A to USB-C cables, and just purchased a new USB-A to C adapter to try a standard USB-C to C cable with it, and it doesn't work. I get the "Not charging" message in the top right and it won't connect. I just have to imagine this is an incompatibility with connecting...

    Using an iPad Mini 6

    I'm able to connect my iPhone 16 Pro via USB-C to the Phantom 3 Pro's controller and have it recognize, but when I connect the iPad Mini 6th Gen (iPadOS 18.7) to the controller with the same cable, it bonks like it knows it's connected but on the iPad I get a "Not charging" indicator over the...

    iPad mini wont connect to controller

    Did this work for you? I have a Phantom 3 Pro and my iPhone 16 Pro (USB-C) works great with it. My iPad Mini 6 won't. I just get a "Not charging" indicator on the battery and won't connect. I have a little USB-A to USB-C adapter and it works with the iPhone 16 as well, but not the iPad Mini 6...

    Battery recommendations

    I actually won my P3 at a conference and have only flown it a half dozen times. The last time, I crashed it, so I took this quarantine time to repair it. Now that's it's back in operation, I want to pick up some extra batteries. That should give me more reason to actually take the thing out and...

    Battery recommendations

    Yeah, that's been my impression. @mossphotography above was talking about only using OEM batteries, though.

    Oh, I'm willing to buy the FlyHi's. I'm just trying to confirm if there's a place to buy the OEM's.

    Battery recommendations

    The only battery I have is OEM, but I feel like I want to buy one or two more. It almost feels prohibitive to go out for a flight when you have one battery. 20 minutes of flight time is pretty limiting on fun. ...but I don't see any place online where you can buy OEM batteries for the P3.

    Thankyou! ...same MaH rating and same charger, I assume?

    Battery recommendations

    I have one battery - the one that came with my DJI Phantom 3 Pro. I've seen a lot of 3rd party batteries on Amazon and elsewhere. Does anyone have experience with these? Any recommendations?

    Gimbal whirring noise + solid red light

    Oh, speaking of batteries - does DJI still sell these? I'd like to buy a second one. Or, is there a third party you prefer?

    Gimbal whirring noise + solid red light

    Well, good news is that after SMACKING the IMU, I've cleared the Accelerometer Failure. I wasn't really able to remove the ribbon from either the mainboard side, where it appeared to be glued, or the IMU side, where it appeared to be threaded through the unit... but with the handle of a...

    Oh god. Alright! :oops:

    Gimbal whirring noise + solid red light

    Thanks for your help. I'll try to tap the IMU tomorrow and see if I can fix that problem, and then move on to the board. That may have to wait until after all this covid craziness when I regain my job, but at least I've got a plan! Thankyou!

    Gimbal whirring noise + solid red light

    I'll recheck tomorrow, but if it turns out I can't get a video feed at all, and I want to replace the gimbal board, what's involved, and are they available from DJI? Any ballpark on cost? Is this the one?
