    Wifi module gets hot

    I did get what I thought was the correct board but its the board inside the remote control unit (Wifi download link module). I spoke with DJI parts people and you can only get the board I was after by purchasing the camera assy and gimble as 1 unit. So I decided to scrap the idea and purchase...

    Confusion over signal strength???? Please help....

    Maybe check the cable from the wifi download module to the camera as it is a flexing cable and can break. I can simulate loss of connection and reconnect by disconnecting the camera gimble cable.

    Wifi module gets hot

    S Standard from my understanding has 1 visible antenna and one power switch whereas the advanced and pro have two antenna and 2 push buttons. The Phantom standard 2.4Ghz module (metal cage is located slightly below the middle on the left) of the controller.

    Phantom 3 Standard wifi unstable

    Seems to be the case as the GPS is located in the other board on top of the P3S and not sure about RTH unless is was connected at time of initial takeoff. Info is stored onboard P3S and does not need connection to app as it will RTH when signal is lost for more than 3 seconds.

    Ah ok. You have the RC which the phone connects to via the SSID. The RC connects to the P3S via the wifi download module. So if the wifi module is not working it will show full signal on your phones SSID but the RC will be red.

    Phantom 3 Standard wifi unstable

    Thats what I thought until I completely disassembled the gimble and board. Without the camera connected to the board the RC would connect and disconnect repeatedly. So any issue with gimble flex cable to camera can cause connection issues to the app on mobile device and RC. However main p3s will...

    Phantom 3 Standard wifi unstable

    If you disconnect the gimble cable and try to connect you can fly the p3s no problem but as its connected to the 5.8Ghz receiver but you cant communicate through the app as the 2.4Ghz repeatedly connects and reconnects. This is my understanding of the system as I am troubleshooting another issue...

    Wifi module gets hot

    Purchased a Phantom 3 standard second hand only to find that the Transmitter (controller) loses connection intermittently with the Heli, I have tried the latest firmware and it will lose connection when right next to the Heli. I can however still control all heli functions and the camera gimble...

    This could be that your gimble camera is not connected properly to the Wifi download module. It could be that the flexible gimble camera cable has a partial break in it.
