Updated the new firmware on Nov 23. Big mistake. Took most of the day, kept crashing. Finally installed on my LG Fortune 6.0.1. It doesn't work right. Get up about 30 feet, lose signal. Most of the screen turns green. Can't see anything, not even the status bar. Tried using my older ZTE Sonata 3 with 6.0. Same thing. Was able fly and see using my goggles, but could not see or change any settings on my cell. Both cell phones worked great before the update. Contact DJI support. 1st tech suggested using Assistant 2 and refreshing firmware update by connecting drone to PC. That didn't help. Made mistake of trying to calibrate the forward & downward sensors while on the Assistant 2 page. That failed numerous times. 2nd tech had me reboot laptop and disable windows 10 digital signature requirement, the reinstall Assistant 2. That didn't help the re calibration. 3rd tech guy told me my Android was incompatible, even though specs say Android 4.0 or later (both mine 6.0), so I'm acquiring an iPhone 6. Both my androids worked fine for months before the update. My buddy has a similar problem. Like me, gets lost signal, mag interference. He tried flying without the cell phone using the goggles. Was unable to control it with transmitter. Fortunately it came back on its own. He borrowed his brother's iPhone 6 and it works OK with that phone. I've been advising several others NOT to do the firmware update, even if their phones are on the compatible list. DJI messed up something, won't admit it, and the tech folk are having you do all kinds of things that don't work. I've been using my Mavic Pro constantly since I bought it late July and now it is worthless to me. I'm hoping this iPhone6 will be able to handle the latest firmware update. |
