Phantom 3 Firmware Released - June 15, 2015
V. 1.2.6/7

Major Updates
1. Anti-distortion feature added to  images and non-4K videos
2. Various bug fixes

when support sdk ?

Wondering what the  Anti-distortion feature is all about.
Thanks in advance.

Any one installed this  yet?

is anti distortion like an internal lens correction because every lens has distortion in the edges for example and you need software to remove it. There are camera profiles availabe for lets say lightroom sostware for many cameras out there to correct those distortions. Maybe the app will correct this automatically now ?

DID THE PRO VERSION FIRMWARE UPDATE - LAG, STUTTERING and OVERHEATING IS WORSE THAN BEFORE!

I carefully did the firmware update to the aircraft and transmitter.  Verified that both were done successfully.  I went to my driveway where I have taken off and flown many many times.  I calibrated the compass.  The app showed I was good to go.  Tried to start the motors and got a failure notice "Gyroscope bias is too high.  Restart the aircraft and contact DJI".  

I shut down the aircraft, transmitter and App and restarted everything two or three time with same result.  Then I came in the house and thought I would do an IMU calibration.  Before I did the calibration, I tried the motors.  They started no problem.  Shut it all down and went back outside.  Turned on controller, aircraft and app to establish home point outside... motors wouldn't start... got same message.  Back inside... they started.  This time I did not power off the aircraft or remote and went outside.  This time motors started.  

Flew for a few minutes.  Lag and stuttering was as bad as ever.  During a yaw move, the video screen had terrible tearing, lagging, etc.  Absolutely as bad as ever.  Turned everything off.. rebooted the transmitter, aircraft and app outside.  Motors would not initialize again... same gyroscope error notice.  Phone got so hot that it gave me an overheating notice.  Using Samsung Galaxy S4 with all other apps closed and RAM cleared via the Task Manager.

I care ...

I have been experimenting with upgrade not sure yet Didnt seem to cure all problems I will know after a few more flights only one battery seemed to be hotter I am still losing altitude according to the altimeter Going to start a new thread, I think- did upgrade cure you problems

I think it is a good thing to calibrate IMU and gimbal after a firmware upgrade (and why not stick calibration). Then a compass calibration before taking off.
If it doesn't solve, at least it couldn't be worse.

IMU Calibration fixed the Gyroscope error.  But video lag is still quite bad.  

@StevenHuff : good and bad news.

When i would read Gyroscope to high etc... i would automatically do an IMU calibration because thats what the Gyro is part of. It was basically a decalibrated IMU. I wouldnt attempt to fly at all if this message pops up. Dont know why ppl are so scared to make IMU calibrations, its the easiest thing in the world.

Yes, updated fine, test flight was good as well.

I just did the update on my P3P.  And yes some settings do get reset to defaults so as noted do check everything.  Did IMU then gimbal calibration.  I used to have an issue that startup would take up to a minute for "IMU warming up" to complete.  Now almost instantaneous start up.  Much better.

And note I use an iPad Air 2.  Never had any issues with lag/stutter that others report when using Android-based devices.

No lag from note 4

as I see a few people not having problems with Firmware 1.2.6 and a lot of people WITH problems...
I kindly ask DJI if they have made HARDWARE changes to the second batch of their Quadcopters...
I would like to see a statement/answer on this...
I also think one would state if the problem happens with the Phantom 3 ADVANCED or the PROFESSIONAL. I think the latter one has the problems... I own a Phantom 3 PRO

It takes too long now for a new firmware that will work as good as 1.1.9....
