Hello everyone, Unfortunately, for multiple reasons, my P3P hasn’t been flown for around 14 months. It definitely wasn’t my intention for this to happen but life got in the way. Anyway, over that period, it has been sat it its box the entire time with the battery installed. I’m thinking of...

Update: I have balanced the props and taken it out on a couple of flights. The 'Jello' effect hasn't reduced at all. I guess I am going to have to contact DJI :(

Had a look on Amazon, although can't find any that specify they are genuine.

Does anyone know of anywhere that you can purchase official DJI phantom 3 carbon fibre props, without paying the ridiculous £10+ shipping fee that DJI charge? I'm in the UK. Thanks.

I have a couple of questions regarding the battery of the P3P. 1. With the discharge feature, does the battery have to actually be in the phantom for this to work? 2. Last week, I charged the battery to 100% and then turned it on and did a few calibrations, and the battery dropped to 96%. I...

After some advice on another thread, I am going to balance my props on my P3P. I am going to use a glass on a level surface rather than a Dubro prop balancer as I can't really afford it at the moment. However, could someone recommend a decent prop balancing rod for the P3P in the UK? Also...

Yeah, both the plastic piece and foam piece have been removed :)

That's great. No, I haven't balanced my props, I'll look into it. Thank you very much :)

Thanks for the responses. Firmware is completely up to date, it was the first thing I did. I will try to re-caibrate everything again and i have formatted the SD card 3 times. I'll have to have a close look at the gimbal. Really irritating as it's ruining all my footage :(

I've just watched back my second flight and it's still there unfortunately. Any ideas? In the link I posted look at the trees on the left and you'll clearly see it. It's doing this on my Mac, iPhone, iPad and DJI Go app so it's definitely an issue. What's best to do now? Contact DJI?

Definitely not a smooth video. I've got the entire 20 minute flight video and the majority is ok, but there are a few shakes now and then as shown in my video, it's definitely not my Mac. I've played it on my iPhone and iPad and it's showing the same, there gimbal is physically moving / shaking...

VRS? I do actually have one more question (sorry :confused:). I will do a gimbal calibration later. IMU calibration, I haven't done one of these. Should I? If not, how can I tell when it may need to be done? Thanks again!

One more quick question - When holding the left stick down to descend, can that cause the motors to shut off? Or will this only happen on the ground? I realise if you perform the CSC action in the air the motors will cut off and the quadcopter will fall out of the sky, but was just wondering...

100% sure. When I pressed it, it said something along the lines of 'slide to land', the person who I was with also saw it. I should have taken a screenshot. That's what I thought. It literally drifted for 1 second on take off and then stabilised itself. I'll see what happens on the second...

Just made my first flight with my new P3P and it went great! Absolutely love flying it and am very happy with how responsive it is and the quality of the live stream and recorded footage. I have a couple of questions though: 1. I calibrated the P3P etc and it was all ready to fly. I was...
