Good morning, I purchased the phantom 3 standard in January has flown about 20 times for a total of 2.5 hours, always kept with the utmost care and attention without any bumps or falls.


Until a week ago everything went perfectly, until he started doing this:


- I turn on the radio control and then the drone, the connection is made and the radio control LED turns green, which is connected to the drone, I start the wifi with the phone, open the dji go app and after a few seconds the radio control turns on the red light and disconnects from the app and lose the connection with the smartphone, but if on the radio control move the left stick and the wheel of the gimbal this works (a sign that a radio / drone communication is there);


- if I try to arm the engines by moving the sticks down towards the center nothing happens


- I tried to make the linking between radio control and drone through the small switch placed on the drone, the beep starts but does not synchronize;


- I uninstalled the app and reinstalled but nothing.


- I reset the wifi and the remote control but I have not solved.


Do I need to duplicate the firmware?


I currently have version Firmware v 01.09.0200


Help me, what should I do?


Thank you

Did the upgrade had a success ? You may look on to the log-file on the root folder of the SD card. 2nd Did you try to fly without the phone yet? 3rd if it not disconnect without phone,wil you try the phone connection with airplane mode? 4th. What Go app version are you using on what OS?

HI,
first of all thanks for the answers.

For now I managed to do this:
- I installed the update again but I did not get anything;
- I downgraded to version 1.7.90, but I have not had the opportunity to try it on the fly, from the txt file it seems that it was successful

If the weather will allow tomorrow I will try to make it fly in airplane mode
I dont have to calibrate the radio control, now is charging

Other info:
- the DJI GO app version is 3.1.34 for android
- I use a smartphone Xiaomi redmi note 3 pro


I hope to solve the problem

I will let you know tomorrow

Thank you

Se dal momento dell'acquisto due settimane fa ha funzionato e non ha dato problemi potrebbe essere un aggiornamento xiaomi degli ultimi giorni?
I will try a Sony z3 compact but it does the same problem

Sorry.

If from the time of purchase two weeks ago it worked and did not give problems could it be a xiaomi update of the last days?

Hi, after having downgraded the firmware as I said the remote control has connected well with the drone and the phone.

Last time I flew a week ago without any problems and falls.

Today I had to shoot and the initial problem came back, the radio control is tuned with the drone, but the light is red and does not connect with the phone and consequently with the dji go app.

Can anyone help me???

I am really disappointed by the unreliability of this drone ..... thousand problems !!!

Are you flying in an urban area?

No, to avoid problems I did all the tests in open country areas without magnetic or electrical sources nearby to avoid problems.

Even now I reset the radio control, it stays green for about 30/40 seconds and then turns red and disconnects, but if I move the gimbal wheel, it works.

Why???

The gimbal wheel uses 5.8.  Your camera is on 2.4.

Have you tried connecting to the wifi manually?

I don't see your smart phone on the approval list.  How about trying a different device?

Good luck

Hi,

the video is not mine but represents the exact problem that the drone has.

how I can connect the wifi manually?

My smartphone, Xiaomi redminote 3 pro,  is not on the list of recommended phones but since I bought it I made several flights and never gave me any problems.

I've try a different device but the problem remain.

Do you have any telemetry on your screen? You may take a screenshot of the running app and copter system.

I recently had this exact problem.  It drove me crazy for about twenty minutes.  I had been flying the P3S for a while, and then took it up to my son some 200 miles away.  He installed the Go app, and bingo, we had this problem.  It kept saying something about the password.  We thought t said to put in the password.  So we did multiple times.  Finally, we took the time to read the whole message.  It said to change the password, not put it in.  We were using the old 12341234 password.  We changed it to another one, and the drone was fixed.  We should have read the whole message in the first place.

You might want to unplug the white connector at the top front of the gimbal control module and plug it back in. The drone's 2.4g radio is located in the module. This plug has been known to become loose particularly after a hard landing.

Hi I got the same issue. After researching and testing, I realized that when I disconnect the GPS I never get this problem. So I removed the covers that covered the connections of the Wi-Fi antennas in the gimbal and I covered them with aluminium. Until now and after 3 months everything is working fine.

My understanding is the P3S will fly without a camera.  I don't have a P3S though.  Good luck.

you´ll need a very  good hardware hack to fly a P3S without a cam.

The P3S will fly without camera. However, it needs a camera to bind the rc to the ac. Catch 22. Had p3s with no camera, but couldn't bind rc. took camera from another ac, attached to the ac, bound it, and then removed it and put it back in donor ac. First ac then flew fine without camera and no telemetry of course.
