    Can't update the controller since DJI GO and 1.03.0020

    UGH... why the ____ doesn't DJI specifically state that new controller doesn't need to be updated? I just pulled out another couple of handfuls of hair for no reason. My hubby had BETTER appreciate his new Phantom 3. If not, we may not make it to #31!

    What's with DJI Go?

    Make sure your iPad is one of the versions that supports the app. Not all do but there is a list posted on the forum somewhere. You could also Google your model number and make sure of which model your iPad is.

    What's with DJI Go?

    Well that didn't take long. I found the thread asking about GO and the new FW. Looks like I'll be updating. :)

    What's with DJI Go?

    Sorry for the delay in updating. I finally got it to download and looks like it's ready to go but I haven't hooked everything up together yet to test it. I should probably start a new thread or search but it's been a tough week so, I'm going to ask here! Should I or maybe do I have to update...

    What's with DJI Go?

    I can't believe this! I just got that Mini 2 to use with the Phantom 3 and ran into the library to download the app. Our connection is not good out in the boonies where we live. SO... I get here, get on the WiFi, search for DJI Pilot App and get sent to DJI GO. I see that was just updated...

    Understanding the phone/tablet requirements

    I ordered the iPad cable. Cha-ching. Again! I hope this is the last cha-ching I cough up for awhile for this toy. I have another question sort of about the tablet. Does it need to be "on line" with a Wifi connection? I thought I read somewhere that it doesn't but then something I just read...

    Understanding the phone/tablet requirements

    I'm sorry... I meant to ask if the vids were stored on the card in the cam AND the phone or tablet. If they're on the camera, why would they need to be stored on the phone/tablet? I got a 64 gig card for the camera thinking that's where the vids would be stored. While there is quite a bit...

    Understanding the phone/tablet requirements

    So the vids are stored on the tablet or phone or both? What does the scan disk in the camera do? I just clicked "buy" on a iPad Mini 2 with 16gig. I might use it to surf around while we're traveling but don't play games. I'll set up the app like Phantom Help suggests. Thanks!

    Understanding the phone/tablet requirements

    We both have Samsung Galaxy S5 phones. We also have Kindle Fires and a Verizon Ellipsis tablet. If I understand (which is questionable), we should be okay with the S5 phones but the Kindles and Ellipsis won't work because they don't have GPS capabilities. I'm confused about the WiFi need or...

    Controller won't update

    Just checked my controller and it is the B version. It would be nice if DJI had enclosed an FYI if an update is not needed.

    Controller won't update

    I didn't see the blue lights. It had shut down by the time I got back to it. So maybe it didn't update properly? Here is what the .txt msg said: ========== 2014.01.01 00:00:12 unsynchronized ====== Packet: P3S_FW_V01.02.0008.bin Upgrading ... Result: Success. There is just one message...

    Controller won't update

    Well of course... after I tried 500 times yesterday and once already this morning AND after I post .... I got it. Good grief. I think I was waiting too long between depressing the "ON" button the first time and then the 2nd time. Thanks!

    Controller won't update

    Hi again, I received excellent advice here when I had questions about the Phantom that I purchased for my hubby's birthday last year. I'm back with questions about the Phantom 3, he's getting for our 30th anniversary. I charged both batteries then updated the helicopter with no issues with...

    Success!!

    We used the waterproof case but it was attached to the standard mount on the Phantom. DaWife
