Getting ready for my first flight of the year. I charged everything, turned on everything, but when I launched DJI Go there was no Phantom 3 option to select. Only OSMO, Inspire, Phantom 4 and Matrice 100. Then a popup appeared that said "Update new firmware P3 Standard 1.4.60". It won't seem to let me bypass this so I am stuck. Everything worked great when I last had it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Additional note: There is also a note that indicates the "Download the upgrade package P3 Standard 1.4.60 version was successful, please turn on your P3 Standard and connect the mobile device to its Wi-Fi." WTH? I don't recall downloading anything and I do not have a P3S...

Wow... a week and no help. Well, I figured out the issue. As I was going through all of the settings on my phone I saw "USB Debug Mode" and remembered that I need to turn that ON for my phone to connect to the Phantom. I had turned it OFF when I put the drone up for the winter. Oops. Maybe this will help someone else down the road. :)
 
I'm having a really weird problem with my phantom 3 standard. I was using it normally and one day, when I was updating the aircraft's firmware, an error occured and the update stopped.

Ever since when I try reconnecting everything (the app, the drone and the RC) , the drone will connect to the controller (the gimbal moves when I move the thumbstick on the controller, but it won't fly) and the controller will connect to the DJI GO app, but the drone won't connect to the DJI GO app.

When I open the app I have a "waiting for update" message on the top of the screen and a "remote controller connected. Connect your aircraft" scrolling on the middle of the screen under the phantom 3 picture.

When I try updating via the app I get a message "device disconnected. Please check"


I tried installing the update manually, but DJI removed the update from their website.

When I turn the aircraft on, the back lights are flashing yellow and red while the front ones are solid red.

What should I do? Is there anyway to do a factory reset on the drone to make it go back to its out-of-the-box firmware?

I appretiate all the help I can get
