Is there a link I need to download to the SD card or how exactly do I upgrade the firmware ?

  The Standard Is ONLY updated via WI -FI No SD card required for updates

Now another BIN File- I told them last time my Computer does not Recognize Bin Files that went out ...

The BIN file is a valid file. The Windows OS doesn't recognize it, but you are not to ask Windows to do anything with it. The DJI aircraft is the device that reads the BIN file, per instructions that live in the same web location that you got the firmware ZIP from (that contained the BIN file).

Yes......you usually delete the bin file unless you have to update the extract batteries you might ...

There is no reason to delete the BIN file from the SD card. It doesn't hurt anything being there. In fact, it's a good thing to have it there in case something happens in the field, such as a battery thinking that it needs to be upgraded.

Well... I was hoping the next firmware will address the horizon issue. Too bad it didn't. It's really very disappointing. On my P3A the camera is almost always tilted to one side and it drifts. It might start level but then it will lean right and slowly go back and continue going and leaning left. Once in a while the camera will lean sharply (about 30-40 degrees) to one side when turning. It's usually to the right.
I wonder if DJI will ever address this issue or is the geofencing more important.

The solution for those seeing the + sign insted of 1.7.0060 is after upgrading the DJI Go to 2.7.0 a ...

It worked for some and some it did not.
It will eventually show the correct update.And my app never logged me out so my RC update shows 1.5.8 and I had no problem.
But some may see the 1.6+, and it will go away.
Also, none of my settings changed.

It would be nice if active tracking is available on the P3.

Hi. Active tracking Is now available for the Phantom 3. It's an app (not free) and it is here: Active Tracking.

Glad you are all good, but there is only one RC update, 1.5.8
Maybe yours didn't update the first attempt.

Yes it is ok.
Only if you were under 1.3, you have to stop at 1.3 then go to 1.7.
And if there is an issue, then you can go step by step.

ok DJI can you acknowledge there are some issues with this upgrade, the common one seems to be signal loss. Just let us know you are working on it.

I upgraded my P3P.

Issues with the upgrade: none. It worked just fine.
Issues with first flight: none, it flew just fine

Issues with settings: Why do you have to change the settings with new firmware? Could you at least warn us that you reset them? While out flying, there as a great sky and I took some photos, only to come home and discover that DNG + JPG was reset to JPG only. I can't post-process photos from a freakin' JPG, I need RAW.

New update showed up on the app for my RC. After it was done installing, the gimbal on my P3 Pro started moving like crazy and getting Gimbal Motor Overloaded. I'm not able to update anything else. Anyone else encountered this problem with the Gimbal?

I did my update to the new firmware for my Phantom 3 Advanced and didn't have any issues. I did mine via the app and it worked like a charm. Here is a screen capture of the new app and from the About screen for the versions. I'll take her out for a flight tomorrow.

Still vibrations appear when hovering. Had to lower basic gains to 90 to calm it down at least. Other than that, no problems after update. I did a IMU calibration, following up with a gimbal calibration and compass. Didn't fly for long, but all was good. Hovered a bit, moved around and no issues. Will try again tomorrow though.

Hi guys need help here yesterday I upgraded to 1.7. But the update failed(stated on the log), so I tried again but this time round nothing happened when I switch the bird on. So I decided to take a look at the current firmware, it stated 1.7. So did it failed or not ? I can't re update cuz it's already at 1.7.

Are we going to get and update for android like the ios for GoAPP ? because the 2.7.0 version of android does not show the live video feed from the camera. The live video feed however works with the 2.6.1 version which i had prior to update on another device.. anyone has a fix for this? or we have to wait till DJI releases an update for the GoAPP to address this issue.

I put my second battery in.  It didn't seem to update.

That means there was no battery update in this firmware release, just the aircraft.
Not every firmware release updates the batteries.
