P3A - Limited to 30 meters :((

I FOUND THE SOLUTION..... After hours of troubleshooting...

In my case, I fly with an iPad Mini and P3A no mods.

After updating to P3A_FW_V01.11.0020.bin I was not able to fly more than 30m high. I tried multiple "fix options on the web but with no luck"

What worked for me. I finally went into my iPad settings and it looked like Apple had a software update.
After updating my iPad to the latest version. I went back to the app store and redownloaded the DJIGo app this time the app actually asked me to sign back in and go through more steps to register the drone and accept the new terms.

I hope this helps if you are having an issue with the upgrade and using an Apple device as a screen.

Bird fly's super solid no issues now.
 
This info in on the DJI p3p downloads page. Hope it helps.
2017.07.06 Overview:
1. All-in-One firmware version updated to v1.11.20.
2. Remote Controller firmware version updated to v1.9.2.
3. DJI GO app iOS version updated to v3.1.13.
4. DJI GO app Android version updated to v3.1.8.
What’s New?
1. Updated No Fly Zone Management.
2. For increased safety, the flight is restricted to a height of 30 m and distance of
50 m when not connected or logged into the app during flight, including DJI GO
and all apps compatible with DJI aircraft.
3. Fixed an issue causing occasional ESC self-diagnostic testing failure.
Notes:
1. Make sure you restart both the aircraft and remote controller after updating them
to the latest firmware. Otherwise, video downlink may be unstable. Re-link the
aircraft with the remote controller if they are disconnected.
2. Please note that firmware update may reset various Main Controller Settings,
such as the RTH Altitude and Maximum Flight Distance, to factory defaults.
Before the update, take note of your preferred DJI GO settings, and readjust
them after the update to suit your preference.
3. Requires the DJI GO iOS app v3.1.12 or later, or Android v3.1.6 or later,
otherwise the flight is restricted to a height of 30 m and distance of 50 m.
 
Guys your help.

I was very happy with my P3A, until fall i send to DJI. NO problems here and they send a new one..

The problems:
They install that horrible 1.11fw, and my normal app 2.7.2, shielded, shows the limit of 30m.
I dont have beguiner mode or limit flight turn on, but even so, it doesnt flight more than 30!

I try my wife phone with last app, and it works well (even image also sucks).

I would like to keep 2.7.2 on my old phone with the shield mod...

Any help here?

I fixed my 30m restriction by starting everything as normal and right before takeoff I logged out of DJI and logged back in and then took flight straight out to 150m no warnings or restrictions.
