P3A firmware Update Issue

[Paul_Phantom 3 Standard]

Bought a used P3A a few weeks ago. Got the firmware update at the start as it had not been flown for a few months. Got the RC updated through wifi but no luck with the micro SD for the drone itself. This is what happens: 1. Inserting the card and powering up. 2. I hear a ddd and the status light flashes red for about 5-10 seconds then turns solid green. No more ddd sound. 3. Let it stay like that for over 20-30 minutes with no change. 4. I don't even get a text file on the card.

Any suggestions, I'm at my wits end with it? Thanks Paul

Try reformatting card, make sure firmware bin file is the only thing on the card.

I had the same problems last week. Try a different SD card with absolutely noting else on it.

I have no idea what firmware is on it, should it have at least a particular version on it?
