I like so many other pilots seem to have an issue with the remote not charging. I have tried the reflow method. Tried unplugging the battery. I always get the first led flashing quickly and then it shuts off. I called DJI and they are no help. Send it in. So I have resigned to the fact I will have to purchase another remote. Does anyone know if I buy one from an authorized reseller if it comes with nay warranty? I asked DJI and they don't know. Any help would be appreciated.

Brand new products purchased from DJI or an authorized DJI dealer are covered under the DJI warranty. The DJI warranty shows the P3A remote controller is covered for 12 months.

Not sure if you want to go through the hassle, but I've been able to snag a few remotes off of Ebay cheap. If you watch the listings they pop on with various issues or with drones that have issues.. And most of the time I've been able to piece them together or use one for parts. Or a whole set up that's not working with drone issues.
as an example... I bought one with a non working drone,charger, 2 batteries for $180 and threw the drone back on Ebay for parts and kept the gimbal, charger, batteries,extra props, and remote. I ended up with basically next to nothing except time into it if you break down all the other extra pieces too. . It doesn't always work out that cheap but the deals are out there if you watch the listings and want to do a little juggling. I wouldn't be able to afford the hobby any other way , I pieced everything, even my now "good drones" together from pieces parts.

I spaced out on my end, I was thinking of charging problems not using a powerful enough supply for charging the P3S with a USB cable.

I probably shouldn't admit this.......My first pro didn't come with a charger, I had previously owned a standard, Well, I tried to charge the remote the same way and couldn't figure out why it wouldn't charge....."drive kit"
