(Im krazymagic...changed name)
I apologize for spamming this thread 3 times in a row but I need to post one final update on this. I finally got this fixed. Or, at least figured out its quirks, after hours of troubleshooting and testing.
So, my aux lights will not come on if the drone is just sitting on my table indoors. This is what made me think they were broken. The reason I thought this was because I had seen videos, one in particular which I will try to link here if it lets me from Dustin Dunhill where he toggles the aux light on and off as the drone is sitting on his table. When mine wouldnt do this, I thought it was broken.
This is what I think happened here. If you watch the video (the link is timestamped to the important point in the video) You will see dustin toggle the laux leds on his table, then as he exits the menu he decides to then update the firmware. I think DJI changed the Aux light function in the new Firmware to not turn on unless the drone is in flight. Now that it is dark here, I took my drone out for one last ditch effort to try the lights in flgiht in the dark, and they worked immediately. They toggled on, off, and they work in auto when landing. If anyone happens across this thread and you are bummed like I was, just know that the lights work in flight. I plan to test tomorrow if they work in flight while daylight. It may be where they dont work at all unless its dark enough - I dont know. I want to test this tomorrow to thoroughly understand how they function. Just know however that they will NOT toggle on if the drone is sitting on your table indoors not in flight. If they are supposed to still function this way, as they did in the video here, then there is a bug somewhere.
Ok Ive killed enough time on this today. Apologies for the forum spam. I'm so relieved to know that they do work.
I cant link the video. If you want to see it go to dustin dunhill on youtube, look at his mavic 3 part 1 review and go to 49:30 in the video.
