I have a P3S that keeps prompting me to do the firmware upgrade to v1.3.0050 (http://dl.djicdn.com/downloads/p ... _Notes_en_12.24.pdf).  After seeing a number of users with serious issues from the upgrade (http://forum.dji.com/thread-37859-1-1.html and http://forum.dji.com/thread-37858-1-1.html), I'm hesitant to do so. Has anyone had success with it? It's been out for a few weeks now so I'm hoping that the majority of P3S users have installed it and are back to flying successfully. Does DJI have a history of rolling out newer/corrected versions that would be worth waiting on? Any advice would be much appreciated...

I would hold off. Been a lot of complaints lately. Keep the firmware you have now and once a new one comes out (that actually benefits the P3S) then update. If it aint broke don't fix it.

Probably a safe bet...  Looks like it's primarily focused on flying in cold conditions. It rarely gets below freezing here during the day, so it's likely not worth it.

if your drone is flying good , leave it right where it is til a firmware fix comes out , don't update anything.
