A couple of weeks ago I updated the firmware on p3 and controller to P3S_FW_V01.02.0008.bin which is the current version available at http://www.dji.com/product/phantom-3/download.  Got "success" messages in text files on SD card and everything was good for a while but now the Pilot app is saying "RC required to update" "aircraft required to update"

Left the bin file on the sd card as recommended.

Any insight?

Is your battery up to date as well?

With the bin on the SD card the battery should automatically update.  I would remove and reinstall the App.

Thanks for the suggestion!  Unfortunately I uninstalled and reinstalled the app but I am still seeing the "updates required" and  "RC required to update" "aircraft required to update" in the status.  

I tried contacting DJI chat support and their only suggestion was to return the drone for repair which sounds like a bit of overkill and from what I have heard about service a waste of several weeks or even months.  Everything works fine, I was just wondering about the spontaneous appearance of this update message.

Can someone tell me if there is a way to get a report or display of the current firmware version for the aircraft, rc and battery?  All I can find for version is 1.2 for the app.

I'm having this issue as well. I've just been ignoring it.
