Hi All
Got 2 issues on a P3A after not using it for a couple of months.

1. Aircraft appears to start normally but 10 seconds after starting, the camera drops about 30 degrees and goes limp. I get the error No Transmission Signal and the gimbal wheel control has no effect.

2.  To try and resolve (1) above, I have tried upgrading the firmware. Initially, it seemed to start working with the D D D D sounds, however I noticed that the small front LEDs weren’t alternating green/red and were off. After an hour, I gave up and checked the txt file on the SD card which said ‘upgrading’. I’ve since tried again and now, the aircraft doesn’t recognise that there is a .bin file on the SD and doesn’t start any upgrade process or D D D D sounds. I’ve tried a different SD card. The RC has updated OK. I can still connect RC to aircraft but no image from camera.

All was 100% OK just 2 months ago, so struggling to see what’s happening here?

Any suggestions friends?
Thanks
