Cheers Red.
I will be on with the return after work tomorrow.
Cant believe i will have to send the whole P3P in for the sd card slot repair..
Recognizing the similar ill feelings very well - been there and done that.
I must have been a little hasty a couple of weeks ago, and when I went to remove the micro sd card reader from my desktop computer tower, evidently must have lifted it up, just at the last moment while taking the card out, and broke off a tiny little sliver of the reader, which was left in the tower. The next time I inserted the card reader, to update my Phantom 3 Pro firmware, the reader wouldn't go all the way in.
When I looked over the reader closely, was when I noticed that tiny missing piece, realizing it was lodged deep, at the back of the reader slot. Thankfully, I have a good friend who is a computer tech at a local outlet, and he graciously dropped in and took the tower home to dive in there and surgically remove it. Everything is back to working as usual, but it sure scared me. That same slot is where my regular sd cards from my Nikon D800 are read too. So it's an important component to my photography x2. ;-)
Hope you can have your Phantom back real soon, and that you can return to flying the drone and enjoying it as never before.
Please insert the micro sd card slowly and take care to insert it straight in, and same while removing it. Use extra care and attention.
