My p3s has been working perfect for two weeks. Now - after I have changed the values of Exp and Attitude - it won't start.

Nothing happens when I do the CSC to take off. WHY?

I AM connected to the aircraft. I know that because I can move the Gimball up and down and I can start the aircrafts compas-calibration mode.
I have changed the values of Exp and Attitude back to their original values.

But still - the aircraft ignores the CSC.

Please help.

How do I reset all settings? I can't find that button.

Changing your gains will not make your aircraft not arm.
Have you taken it outside and waited for it to say "Safe to fly GPS" ?
You can still arm the motors and fly without GPS but I just want to know if with GPS you still cannot arm.
Also do a RC calibration from the RC Control Settings tab, you can see if your sticks are moving in the app.

Does it give any (error) message(s) in the app when you try to start the motors? Also, what happens when you execute the CSC several times quickly after each other? Once in a while when my P3S refuses to start, quickly executing the CSC seems to help.

After I shouted "help" I found out that I needed to calibrate the RC. I did that, but with no effect.
No - after the calibration - I haven't tried outside with GPS, only inside without GPS.
I'll try it tomorrow. Hope it works.

I still would like to know how to make a "reset all settings" on a p3s.

The only setting reset is the camera and gimbal. That's why earlier I said resetting settings will not help.
If you have compass errors it may not arm the motors. So if you have to do it inside then put it somewhere away from metal and where you are not getting any compass errors.

leon382: I get no errormessages. Executing the CSC several times quickly doesn't work for mee.

DJI-Ken: Tried outside with contakt to 5 GPS-satelites, I even heard a nice womans-voice telling me "Home-point recorded.....".
But still no reaction to CSC.

Have you any more ideas?

That is strange, and you are moving both sticks to the bottom inner or outer corners?
Have you done the RC calibration? And in that screen when moving the sticks you can see the bars moving in the app?And you are also getting no error messages?

Yes to all your questions!

No errormessages. I do the CSC by moving the sticks to the bottom inner corners (and have tried the outer too). In RC-calibration I see the sticks moving the right way in DJR GO app and it shows 100% in all outer-positions. No compas error. Everything seems fine.

Except for one thing: I can't arm the f...... bastard:-)

I found the solution, and it is (believe it or not, and don't ask why:-):
I changed the "Stick mode" to mode 1. Suddently CSC just worked! Then I changed it back to mode 2 - and I was flying.

That is really strange if you have no errors at all.
I think it may need to be sent in for repair.
If you give me your email I with have the support center contact you Monday.

That raises an interesting question , Ken. If you change modes on the sticks,  does that affect how CSC is done?  I would not think so,  but maybe I'll just try it on my Advanced.
