I recently did an update and after the update my controller didnt work. I tried charging the controller several times and for a short time the lights would be displayed like it was charging properly and after unplugging it wouldn't turn on. I did a hard reset and tried again and the same issues. Now it doesn't display any lights but the controller is definitely getting warm. Any ideas? Should I purchase a new battery?

#1 How long have you had your Phantom?
#2 What is a hard reset on a remote control?
#3 Like it was charging?, will it still charge?
#4 This is a P3A or P3P?

Welcome
Maybe this thread can help: REMOTE CONTROLL WON'T TURN ON!!!!!
I had similar issue and using that thread as start I was able to make my RC revive at post #35.
Can be also the battery that is totally dead.
Hope you will be able to do same.
I was able to turn it on that way a few months ago, but now that doesn't even work... Where is the best place to purchase online parts?

There is this one for spare battery: DJI Phantom & Inspire Series R/C Battery
I have also a RC with an old battery that self-discharge faster so was good opportunity to see if easy to get one.
