    P3P Falls Out of Sky within a few seconds...WHY?

    We feel your pain! Were all 4 propellers still attached after the crash? I would sync my flight data with DJI and get straight on to customer support if you feel its a warranty claim. Also upload your log file here https://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/Upload/ and post a link so people...

    P3P Camera Problem

    Do you still have telemetry when the camera feed stops? Are you killing/stopping all other apps except for the Go App before flying? You can also put the phone into air-plane mode and see if that helps . I would try rolling back to ver 3.1.3 and see if that version works better. DJI will...

    Reboot iPad every flight?

    I have a mini 4 and have flown all 3 Phantom 3 models. Currently flying P3A and P3P and I find that as long as I close the Go App completely between flights there is no need to turn off or reboot the iPad. Double press the home button and kill everything running and see what happens. I...

    anyone else get the calibrate ball

    Mine does that if I put it down on the bonnet of the car or near any large metal items or magnets. (mini 4 latest IOS update) It appears to be tied in with the built in compass in the iPad mini and in my case only happens when the compass readings get confused if I move it away from the...

    P3P Camera Problem

    What version of the Go app are you using? Does the image go sort of black and white when it freezes ? If you change camera modes (ie eg still to video or vice versa) does the live view come back. Does it look like this ... If your using one of the current versions of the Go app then...

    POI Freeze

    If the Go app crashes then RTH from the screen won't work. Did you try toggling the left switch several times to manually initiate RTH? Was the LED on the controller still green or had it gone red?

    Does any one know what makes the phantom the style?

    If you switch cameras on an advanced it becomes a Pro (with the right firmware) so I guess if you switch the camera on a Pro it will become an advanced. The obvious visual difference is the Pro camera/gimbal has a small fan on top and the advanced doesn't. Perhaps if you check the Firmware...

    Fast drop from 1499 feet

    The log files are stored on your mobile device. You can access them without the phantom. There is a second set of more detailed logs on the phantom itself, it sounds like your trying to access these ones yes? The camera/gimbal assembly on the phantom 3 S contains the WiFi radio for the...

    Flying in windy conditions.

    I use a similar method. If my hat blows off its too windy. My calibrated hat is good to about 25kph but for the first week after a hair cut it drops to 20kph.
