Have a phantom 3 standard and have failed many times to upload the recent firmware to the drone. I have ensured there is no data on the sd  card and on the tell phone.
When I start the drone upi get the message  no image  transmission

First try reconnect remote and bird. If that don't work, put latest firmware on sd card (fomat SD), and wait til solid green is on gimbal.

Can't get my firmware update either. Transfer bin. File to micro sd, put in bird, the bird does start up dance then deadly silence, no bleeps green light on gimbal on permantly, red lights on front on rear yellow flashing.  Tried on three occasions today left it in the above state for 30 min 50 min and 25 mins. Took micro sd out and bin file is there but no txt file . Fed up any advice
