****BEWARE**** Once you update your drone to 0900, you cannot downgrade your firmware, even if you try to use the Drone Hacks app. Dji has changed the anti rollback value now to 2. First FW values was set to 0, then to 1 and now its 2, so no other FW will be compatible agter updating.




So my findings from flying 2 batteries so far, not fully charged was great. I just enjoy the cruise mode, its super. I can set my speed and just control the drone towards the place I want to go. The brake force adjustment feature is so amazing as well, the drone does not give any jerkiness when stopping if you set it to a lower value but goes further before it stops fully so beware of that. Cannot test night mode as it is still bright out here but the M3 had a good camera for night shooting either way. Airsense for me does not fully work still but I did get 1 quick 2 second warning when the manned helicopter was only directly above my drone - this needs a lot of work from Dji. Other than this I personally feel that the signal penetration is much stronger. I sat in my lounge with the drone 2km away and closed the glass sliding door and only had 1 signal bar drop. Flew 4km away and no signal drop but I am on the DH FCC hack as well but never had this good signal before even with the hack. When updating the RC Pro, if you have the drone hacks hack for FCC, it still works.

I think they are blocking the rollback because of the EU C1 classification that they are allowing retrospectively for drones that are updated.

Tha could be it but normally when Dji removes previous versions from Assistant 2, they dont change the anti rollback value.

Good day, Suren. I have gotten accustomed to the "new" Airsense and grown to like it. If you open the map, it shows craft several miles away. Sometimes over twenty miles away. It only warns if a collision can be imminent. I generally get one or two warnings a night. I fly quite often getting sunset Hyperlapses.

Mine also shows aircrafts very far away but the warnings are so quick on the screen like 2 seconds for me. I found with this new FW that signal penetration is so good that you don't need to fly very high now to get distances and i flew 4 batteries at 40 meters and went out almost 6km away with just 1 bar signal drop

Yep, just started reading about that one.  : )

I get to miss the initial fun while my M3C is "serviced".

I suspect they want to be seen to be doing something for the EU regulators.    EASA was really against retrospective classification previously so they pulled off a miracle almost.

Mine ended up fixing itself after I reinstalled the firmware. I had my vpn on so not sure if that affected it but it works for me now.
