I just upgraded to the latest firmware. Have been flying with an older version of DJI GO sideloaded on my Cyanogen modded Nexus 7 but just bought Litchi to use. Up until Litchi purchase it has worked flawlessly (for most of 2016). I loaded Litchi from the play store but when I tried to open the app it immediately error-ed, "Unfortunately, Litchi has stopped". I read of conflict errors with DJO GO so I forced it closed and cleared the cache and tried Litchi again...no dice. So I uninstalled DJI GO, restarted and tried Litchi again...same error. I removed Litchi and sideloaded a very old version and it ran fine...for the DJI Phantom 2. Contacted Litchi support and got a more recent .apk of Litchi that worked with my P3P. So I re-sideloaded DJI GO but it seemed to be a newer version and when connected to my P3P it said that I needed to update the firmware.
I had been putting it off but decided to go for it...and all seemed to go well. It seemed to work on the table. But I just went on my first flight with it...and I wanted to film in 4k since my Christmas present is a laptop capable of editing 4k video with my new Power Director 15. I previously only recorded in 1080. While flying visual line of sight on a clear beach within 250 feet up and down the shoreline the video on my Nexus 7 was extremely choppy and got so bad the video automatically stopped recording on its own. The flight controls continued to work tho. I restarted the video recording a few times and every time the video on my tablet got very bad and the recording automatically stopped. I have a Windsurfer and made 100% sure that it was pointed directly at the bird. I thought that this firmware was not working for me and focused my thoughts on the flight. I did recall that I did not put my tablet in airplane mode like I usually do...but that should not cause the video recording to automatically stop and video transmission to be...almost useless.
Old firmware version 1.09.10
New firmware version 1.10.09
Old controller firmware 1.60
New controller firmware 1.80
And I updated all 3 of my batteries too.
Checked text file after update...Said Success.
Deleted text and bin files after update and before first flight.
Thinking about going back to 1.09.10...thoughts and suggestions are welcomed.
