    Thinking about selling my mint Phantom 3 Advanced

    Hi All I'm 'thinking' about selling my first drone, the P3 Advanced. It's been cared for like a child and is in mint condition. The camera was upgraded to a P3P camera a couple of years ago because the original P3A camera circuit board failed, Peter Thomason in Stockport did this. I also have a...

    HELP! Unusual P3A start-up problems, connects OK but camera drops forward

    No visible damage, looks like I will have to send it for repair. I'm looking at Dronedoctor in the UK, do you have any other UK recommendations? Many thanks for all your help :-)

    I agree it would make sense. Is it easy to reseat the cables? I’ll have a try before sending for repair [emoji106]

    Stopped the upgrade, the txt says upgrading. It’s still on the old FW so didn’t even attempt it. Very odd.

    HELP! Unusual P3A start-up problems, connects OK but camera drops forward

    Hi msinger, I tried it without the card and same effect. Interestingly, I couldn't update the FW initially so tried a tip from one of your other forum posts about trying a different SD card and that appeared to start the upgrade OK. Now, the problem I seem to have is that the D-D-D-D is still...

    I hadn't but I'm updating the FW now - it's been updating for 45 mins and I'm still getting D-D-D-D suggesting it's working but no led lights on the gimbal housing at the front?

    P3A startup problem - not seem this before, hopefully a quick fix? Not flown for maybe 2 months, charged all batteries last night. Went to fly today but had a couple of issues: 1.

    App connection requirement or limited flight?

    I've read a bit about the requirement to be logged in or connected to the app or have flight limits imposed but what does it actually mean real world? Is it an issue? I'm still on an earlier go app version and haven't upgraded since last year but want to understand implications or not. Any...
