Aloha mrapl1,
You have the earlier version of Android DJI Go 2.2.0. So did I. Android 2.3.0 is now out (September 29th). When I went through the Android app, I somehow came across the DJI site (Internet was enabled) and the site told me I had to download the new app. I thought I already downloaded the new app! But, somewhere in this forum, someone had noted that there was a 99 MB version of DJI Go and I remembered the one I had installed already was about half that size. So, I downloaded and installed the 99 MB version.
Now the About page (bottom of modules page - P3, RC, camera, battery, etc.) displays my versions as:
DJI Go 2.3.0
RC 1.3.20
Firmware 1.4.10
If you want the IOC to work properly with Android 2.3.0 there are some other procedures you will need to follow if you are having problems like I have been having with my Android device. Mostly, there are two important things that have to be done before each IOC flight - at least for me so far. 1. - Format the SD card (bottom of the Flight Page). Be sure you have removed any photos or videos first before you put the SD chip in your P3! 2. - Disable the Multiple Flight Modes option in the P3 Module of the modules page. (You can bring up the Modules Page by touching the corner icon at the upper right corner of the Flying desktop in with the telemetry data. The P3 module is the top one on the left and then choose the advanced options. The Multiple Flight Modes slider is the top one. Right below it is the IOC slider and already grayed out and disabled so you cannot mess with it) Trust me, there is another way to turn IOC on.
Then you can start your motors in P-GPS mode and fly to over 35 feet up and 18-20 feet away. You cannot enable or load Multiple Flight Modes and the IOC on the ground. As your P3 hovers up there, flip your silver PAF switch on the upper left corner of the RC from the P position to the F position. A pop-up box will appear warning you if you want to enable Multiple Flight Modes. Press Confirm on the bottom right. If everything works, the five IOC modes will appear. If there is a problem the box will say, "Failed to start Multiple Flight Modes", but that HomeLock and CourseLock are enabled. If it fails, shut everything down, including the Android device, and start over (reboot) so your device can sort things out. Eventually, you will get the sequences right and it will work.
Right now, I am at the stage of trying to see if I can skip the formatting and disabling the Multiple Flight Modes. But, any way I can get the five IOC modes working, I am up there in heaven with my P3.
I hope I got most of the words right. If not, sorry, but they mean roughly the same thing - like "confirm" or "yes".
Aloha and Drone On! |
