Hi rayrokni

DJI strongly recommends to upgrade firmware at all t ...

Lag time still there and google crash still there and if I leave the sd card with the new program in the copter, it just sits there and beeps, so I have to use a fresh sd card to fly.

running the pilot app since GO not out for android yet

status says RC firmware needs to be updated. seems like it updated ok, but keeps saying to update it

if I click retry it says current version is same as downloaded version (1.3.20), so it doesn't even make sense

You can safely ignore this for now until the GO app comes out for Android .

The only issue i have is the camera is some times pointing off to the left slightly, making it hard to fly straight using FPV. A few others have report this too on other forums.

This might be off topic, I thought that the GO was for apple users and the PILOT was for Android users... but I just assumed it was like that... what's the difference between the two?

Btw, I am actually unwillingly ignoring the constant reminders to upgrade... I'm in Mauritius (Google us) and it will take forever for my phantom to reach DJI and back to me should the upgrade fail... I'm on 1.1.9 with Pilot 1.1.0 (To much lag on the 1.2.0) and it's very stable...

I just got it about 3 weeks ago though - and I only have  4hrs of flight with it...

I'm guessing that you can't revert to a previous firmware?

Yes,  since new firmware you can downgrade to as far as 1.1.9

But most on the forum are looking for support for the firmware issue, I would not take this as an indication across the user base.

hello, i performed the update of the firmware Last Tuesday 10/27 and it didn't take 30 minutes. I talked with ken at support then and we checked the settings and he said I was good to go. today I used it for the first time since. I lost control signal but not video at between 200-400 feet out and 50 feet or so up in the air. what could be the problem? it was fine for 50 flights until i did the update

This shits ridiculous... I shouldn't have to borrow or buy an android to update my rc, I've waited over a month to upgrade to iOS 9 solely because dji employees have stated there are still bugs. I paid good hard earned money for something that cannot keep up with what it was advertised to do. People are supposed to be sufficient with the often response of "DJI knows theirs a bug and is working on a fix" they are sure to push the new $$ maker products but slow to fix what's busted. We are talking about a multi million $ company, if not billion, whom the U.S. GOVT  is putting on a board to help with the registration process of our birds..... Stand by folks, this should be good!

DJI has only had my P3 for little over 1 week but I still haven't heard anything. A local shop to me said DJI has his phantom for 12 weeks........ not looking good.

I did all my updates yesterday .... I'll take up my bird in a normal routine that I usually do around my house and see if there is signal drop. The RC updated in under two minutes while being connected to my I pad air with 9.1 on the OS

Sorry guys I just noticed that the screen shot of firmware upgrades was before I upgraded the RC is on 1.4.30
The other shots are off the signal quality low which I never had before the updates.

Now I did get the bird back to 1.3.20 but I can't get the RC to go back at all.
However now the bird has no more signal issue.... I'm scratching my head I flew it out 500 meters with out a drop in signal
But now I have the app telling me I need a firmware update on the bird and the camera...
Has anyone had luck rolling back the RC ???

I'm sorry for this post exposing my confusion, but I thought that the firmware upgrade was for the Phantom 4k.   Everyone is talking about upgrading their P3P, but that firmware is at version 1.6.004.   Is there new firmware for the Phantom 3 Professional?
