Been trying for the last 3 hours to get my brand new Phantom 4 pro to work. Ipad air 2, connected, then updated firmware and now it says the application is not compatible with this device. Drone does not connect with app. $2.5k and this thing should be slapping me on the ass and making breakfast. I'd settle for a few minutes of flying time.  /sigh   Anyone have any ideas?    Cheers.

Please tell me the model of your drone. What is the color of the indicator of your RC? Please ensure that the firmware of your RC is the latest version. What is the error message from your app?

Hi, please try to shut the drone down, start the drone and check if the drone is in the latest version. If it still prompts you to update, please upgrade the firmware again via DJI Assistant 2.

Be patient and try working with the DJI Assistant 2. Had similar issues but was able to get it going with the help of the DJI A2. Reboot both RC/AC and start over. Trust me for me it was a pain in the ARSE but I got it up and running with the DJI A2 system.  Good luck !

Like Thor and M.C Pilot mentioned, try using the Assistant 2 Software to upgrade/reapply the firmware. After that, I'd recommend resetting the unit to factory defaults. To give yourself a fresh start on the mobile device, I would recommend reinstalling the app. Could you happen to clarify which OS version your iPad is running as well?

Aloha Grymauch,

     Good to see you are in the air.  Are you using the iOS approved Lightning Cable?

Aloha and Drone On!
