since I don't use waypoints and such, I downgraded my P3 Pro from 1.4.1 to 1.3.2 after hearing about various issues like signal loss hitting some folks.  1.3.2 seems to work just as well for me.  I think (somewhat subjectively) that the 1.4.1 was causing a left drift when moving forward and ii had to adjust every now and then.

Anybody else downgrade to 1.3.2 like me?  Anything to watch with this version?

Thanks for your help.

How did you downgrade? I am having trouble finding a link to how to do that.

1.3.20 is a solid firmware.. Didn't have a single issue with it.

Yo are correct about 1.4 that there seems to be some issues, mainly the loss of signal issue and the slight drift when flying in a straight line.. Hopefully these will be resolved in the next firmware ( mid to end of October it would seem ).

I'm living 1.4 though. The POI feature alone makes up for any other issues IMO

I downgraded after excessive yaw to the left when going straight.   The problem isn't entirely resolved in 1.3.2 but it's much better.  Simply load the 1.3.2 firmware onto your SD card and turn on the P3 without turning on the RC.  It's just like any other firmware upgrade.

I heard that an update was coming in just a few days, due to all the error reports with 1.4

When I do what you did, all I get is this:

The firmware on the SD card is identical to or older than the current firmware on the aircraft.

You need a service bin file to flash the craft first, then the 1.3.2 install.  There was another post on this elsewhere.

Don't suppose you have the service bin file?

Did you get the service bin and did you try it? I found it but it mentions P3A. I have the P3P. Do ...

I did not do it. I looked around the forums and everyone is mentioned how you just load 1.3.2 on to your SD card and it should automatically downgrade.

May I know what kind of signal loss issue you experienced?   Does it recover from signal loss after the drone gets back closer?  I wonder if the lost connection problem that I am running into is related to firmware; see my post on this...

Interesting. What does your installation log file say? Do you get camera transmission?
