the firmware is different for the P3A (file starts with P3S even when not a P3S) and the P3P (file starts with P3X). are you sure you are using the correct fw for your model? are you the original owner? if not maybe someone put a P3A camera and gombal on the P3P body.

my gimbal and camera is professional but maybe gimbal board somebady change before me..

I have a P3P that needed a camera main board, only one available at the time was a used P3A one. On strting it up, it comes up as a P3A, and requests an update, which I have not done in over a year. It still works. I have since bought a new P3P camera in the box, but am reluctant to fit in case of crash, flyaway or other mayhem.

Yes, that is correct. But it works as a P3A, no 4k. I do not need 4k yet anyway. I have no good playback TV or PC for 4k

No, I have not done any update for over a year, since before my original P3P 4K camera died, and I do not intend to do any updates as long as it still works! I do not tust DJI updates, and the last one took away Google maps and replaced them with HERE maps, which are no good.

AFAIK the drone still has P3P firmware in it. I did not put P3A in it after I had camera board changed to 3A.

I can live with the HERE map, but satellite images are very bad. i am not doing updates any longer, so I canlive with it as it is, lol.
