I just reloaded the firmware and reinstalled the app again on the iPad and now it seems its working good so far.. I will let you know if I need any further help.

So I Take that back again it worked perfectly with two flights no problems again did a flight an hour ago. I am again hitting that brick with all the limits that maximum flight distanced reached and change it in app like You say but its already enabled with max flight distance and no beginner mode or anything. So if you can get back to me what can I try maybe old firmware again ?

Hi DJI Diana ,  i have the same issue "ESC error".  I try to restart the drone for several times but nothing. please help me.
Device : Phantom 3 Pro


I would like to know what checks (verification) we can do the users to know if ESC ERROR, is a software or hardware issue, if it has a hard landing or is due to an update: that the engines stop working.


I read in the forums something that should be changed ESC Board         .....and here I read that the firmware must be updated (.bin file), I'm a bit confused, so I ask what verification we can do users.




I hope comments,
Thank you,

How far have you flown when you reached the maximum flight distance? Have you logged in your DJI Account in the APP? Please click the Reply button under my post if you have any further questions.

Yes, I have logged in under the DJI GO app and sometimes it works and other times which are 80 % of the time maximum flight distanced reached thing happens. I did talk to DJI support as well They just informed me to close the app and relaunch it during flight if that happens and let the drone hover before I close and re open the app I am yet to try this Since its been raining. Maybe I will let you know by tomorrow.

Hi, I'm also having the "ESC status code" error, but I did have a little crash prior.  What does that indicate I can/should do to get it flying again?  

By a "little crash" I mean I flew sideways into my shake roof, it flipped over and stopped on the roof.  One of the props was broken.  I replaced them all and then tried flying again and it flew just fine.  I was able to do what I was trying to until it got a low battery warning.  I landed and turned it off and then decided to try again (as it was only 30%).  When I tried to fly again, I got the "ESC status code" and even after restarting, it would not fly.  I have v3.1.23 of the DJI app.  I was using an iPad Air 2 with iOS 11.2.2.  Since it flew fine after the crash and the new props, I'm confused why it is complaining now?
Also, I recently upgraded all the firmwares and the app was reporting all was normal.

Thanks.

Hi Diana,

So I did fly it today again Finally got a change  from all that rain. Sorry for the delay in message. I was getting the Maximum Flight distance reached again, I think around 97 feet or something. Anyhow. I did notice something today which is very interesting so when this is happening all the info which is suppose to be on the app like Return to home altitude and other number for the flight are not there they are 0. So When I close the app and relaunch it and reconnect usb seems like all my setting as like Return to home altitude 45m (Which I set previously) starts showing that is when everything works.  Which tells me it is more of an issue with the DJI GO app.

Now to the version of the app I am posting the screenshot of it.

Also I am using the iPad pro 10.5 inch and I have in the past try to reload the app by deleting it from the iPad that does not work.

However as I said I think I have found a temp resolution to the problem which is close the app and relaunch it until we get all the return to home altitude and other numbers starts showing that is when everything works perfect.

Please get back to me if you know a permanent solution for this once again Thank you so much for all your wonderful help. You guys are amazing !!!

Hello Diana,

thank you for BIN file but unfortunately with the upgrade I still have the same issue ESC status error.

When did this error start? Did anything happen before, like hard landing or crash? Sorry, sounds like a hardware issue, you may need to send the drone in for diagnosis and repair.

May I know what is the OS version of your iPad pro? As for the new issue you noticed, could you please provide a short video of it? You can use the iOS built-in screen recorder to record a video.

There is no such a procedure. Besides, it looks like a hardware issue, not a firmware issue, since you've already tried the beta firmware, but it persists. Please check this link, see if you can find a recommended service center. https://www.dji.com/service/repair/centers
