I've upgraded to version 1.6 on my Phantom 3 pro and the latest for everything else (batteries, remote, iPad app etc).  Am I the only person who's speed now seems to be severely restricted?  I'm not getting any of the vibration issues that are widely publicised.  The maximum speed I'm now getting from the thing is now 7m/s in ideal wind conditions,  the ascent and descent speed has also reduced to around half of what it was on version 1.4.  Although the machine flies OK, it has never been as stable / controllable as it was on version 1.3.  Is there anything to fix this? Has anyone else seen similar problems?

For info, my machine has the old motors and the outside temperature was around 6 decrees centigrade when I last flew.

I just flew mine last night and got the advertised 16m/s. On the Phantom only the ascent and descent have been reduced by the latest firmware. 5m/s ascent and 3m/s descent.

It wouldn't show an error, it will just say update required but you can ignore that if you really want to stay on a lower firmware.

Done ...  been doing that ever since about 10 minutes after the update .

I "thought" ( stupid ME) that firmware updates were suppose to solve known issues NOT remove features that were working in the previous version ?

Also proly would not upgraded ( uses term loosely) if it were not for the ANNOYING yellow warnig in the app . Got tired of seeing it so I updated the firmware ... MAN what a mistake .
