After the updating, all the MC settings will be set to default. So if you want to use the sport mode, please enable multiple flight modes in MC settings before flight. As for your Note 4, please make sure USB debugging mode and MTP mode are enabled. Try with different cables or reinstall the DJI Go app if necessary.

okay, I see.

The option for "Factory Reset" is also there?

Seems strange.Does the issue come up every time with this operation? A video of recording this issue on the screen would be helpful.

With every update, older devices  become more and more obsolete. A newer device will solve the video lag or you could use a third party app to control your quad, litchi works great on older devices.

To DJI Paladin, Ken and all the followers,

- yes, this strange behavior occurs each time I start Phantom 4. Once I release the sticks, it may spontaneously climb up up or descend by as much as 20 meters.
- once I take control, the craft is rock solid in the air.
- the altimeter is weird, showing sometimes 20 feet above current position, and it doesnt reset when it enters radar area, but it resets on touch down.

I did all sorts of calibrations and all I achived is increasing IMU warming up time and tilted horizon... now it tilts in the same side I yaw, and no, I dont have this FPV mode on.

Guys, my P4 is less than month from when I made purchase, why all this crap suddenly, can not you make good beta testing!

Can you please tell me what is MC?

If this is Master Controller, is this the mother board in the craft itself? In which state then it will be after resetting it?
1. Ready to fly,
2. as shipped, or
3. need to calibrate every sensors, including visual positioning and obstacle avoidance, just to take off?

Can the reset operation be made by end user with PhD in technology? ;)

I have noticed some minor altitude deviations from what is on the RC and reality after the last upgrade.

Pure guess based solely upon my past experience in software design:
Maybe the software patch that was added to eliminate the altitude drop at hover is the cause?  Sometimes, software correction algorithms can have different affects on the different hardware they are trying to control, unless there is a proven hardware feedback loop system in place to auto correct for differences in hardware tolerances.

As far as the video issue, I also have that as well; it seems the P4 can not stay in Auto/4mbbs mode, which will provide the maximum range. Litchi confirmed this and they are contacting DJI.

If it is the DJI assistant 2 app, you must also have your controller turned on for it to detect the unit as a whole.

Hi  paladin. Can't add pictures. Just if I push the button "chose file"    nothing happen. Have made 2 screenshot. Email? Why I can't upload? How can upload ?

To the second.. people add all the time some "stuff" on the drone: stickers, Gimbal protectors, tracker, lights.. ect.  That's how it is. Not many people ask friendly for the locations of some sensors, they just do. So please be kind and provide this information.  When the drone hits the water , the warranty docent matter anymore at all. So what is so bad to do a locator on to fish the trash out of water.?

We really need screenshots to see exactly what you are talking about. I have a S6 and everything is working fine.
As far as something to protect loss of sinking aircraft in water is i used to use these. They are hard to find now. Whenever I flew over water i just zip-tied two onto the bottom of the arms. But that's my own aircraft and DJI doesn't recommend adding aftermarket devices to the your aircraft.

Hello Paladin. I finally figured out the issue of the upload button.
Your app and software developer is using a " shockwave flash" application to realise the upload. But. Windows 10 or 7 as well Android do not support anymore Flash- applications for safety reasons.
DJI should change soon the way to make software. I do not have flash on any computer or Android devive. I couldn't find in the rupee and regulations to be a client of DJi that I have to provide it.
So please tell me how to upload pictures...
Thx

I've reported this issue to our forum developers and they are working on it. Sorry for the inconvenience and currently you may need to use the computer to upload the pics.Google chrome browser is a good choice.But now if you have difficulty in uploading pictures, I'd suggest you to use DJI Assistant 2 to refresh the latest firmware. Make sure the RC's firmware is 1.6.0. What's more, if it is convenient, try to use different devices and network to detect the firmware version again. Reinstall the app if necessary (before your reinstall it, don't forget to sync all of your flight records to the cloud via DJI Go app)

I have to shut down all known about bad software and download flashplayer. Now it works. But my computer is open for hackers. Thank you DJI. Better you change the scripting of your apps and software, because it something happen now with this pc.. you will get an email.
I'm really pissed. How you can should out"we are the best" and still use a flash software what is well known to cause trouble. All big software platforms such as Apple, Microsoft and Android gives continuing  warnings about flash. But you.- the best and biggest- forced me to install it... or nobody can help me, right
( man.. I'm really angry)
Next time you can send someone from Honking to Sanya, Gain an to fix the problems you some to me.

@Paladin.
I use an Samsung Galaxy S Tab2 9.7"  SM-T815c.Android 5.02.  This is a Chines version. DJI version is 2.8.3,  as well the APP is up to date.
Furthremorse I use an Samsung Galaxy S5 Mobil device. Android 6.02 German version. DJI last version.

On my Win10 computer is your Assistant2 in latest Version.

On my P4 is 1.2.503.

On my Rc.. I have no idea, Becaus nobody is talking me how to see that if the original firmware is not showing.

In case I need more devices let me know when DJI will send to me. I will organize someone is there.

Sir.
Indicator is cyan. Off you're I can redo all. I can buy new hardware. But did you see how much dim this her consumes? My time as a client. I know you , Paladin, try to help us.So please don't take it privat. But all the software issues I can read here are made not by clients, but they eat our time. The drone is a toy I only can buy if I have the money. After that it will eat my time . Not good.

Back to your words. No error message. Gust talking me firmware is off time. And no informations about RC or version.

Is there a shop/expert here in Sanya?

Please try to use this method to force RC to update via the DJI Go app.Cyan indicator on the RC is related to a RC update faliure:
* Turn on the controller, and the aircraft should be off.
* Press C1, C2, record and the wheel on the right side of the controller and then turn off the controller.
* Don’t let go of any fingers, and turn on the controller. Then the controller will be able to update again.
