Hello everyone,
I just a Phantom 3 advanced and got the same problem. Here is what exactly led to the issue:
1) The iPhone App asked me to update the firmware. As of today, the latest version is Phantom 3 Advanced Firmware v1.2.8 on the dii site: http://www.dji.com/product/phantom-3/download
2) I erroneously downloaded both firmware versions onto the SD card: those for Advanced and for Professional
3) I interrupted the update process and saw from the error log on the SD card what the problem was. I thus deleted one of the files and tried again
4) By that time, the iPhone app showed the scary "Gimbal cannot receive MC data...Check the 8-pin plug …". At the same time, the Phantom-3 made a *terribly* loud beeping noise.
What I tried after reading everything here and elsewhere:
1) I sat it under a cardboard box and let it beep for 30min. Nothing had changed. Only different parts of the Phantom 3 got so hot, I burned my fingers
2) I realized that the SD card can be formatted from the RC. So I did this, then uploaded the new firmware version, and tried again, after having the phantom cooled down for 20min in front of the AC. I had the RC switched off. But the same thing happened: terrible beeping. The gimbal moves around for a few seconds, then gets lame and just hangs down. While the phantom goes on beeping like crazy…
Has anybody among you in the meantime found new solutions?
Thanks everyone! |
