    Save your money kids... (If you're a P3 owner)

    I'll hold out until P5 or P6, I typically only upgrade my iPhone every 3 years, and will probably do the same with this technology. The P3, compared to the P2 brought us out of the dark ages as far as connectivity and features. I'm going to let the technology mature a little before I invest...

    HOA say I can not fly

    I'm a Director on my HOA board. All of us currently on the board work full time and have young kids. In the case of our HOA, we aren't looking to rule the world. I say this just to make the point that not all HOAs are flag pole-banning enemies of personal freedom. Our board exists to take...

    New Firmware 1.6

    Hello all, I've searched and scoured these threads & the DJI release notes looking for a discussion of results that FW 1.06 brings to the table... So far all I've found is some very vague statements in the release notes: What's New: Improved battery reliability when using the aircraft in...

    Phantom 3 Professional Firmware v1.5.0030

    The naming convention most certainly did change. Last update I did, the firmware download file for Advanced was named "Phantom_3_Advanced_Firmware_v1.4.0010_en.zip". This time it is "P3S_FW_V01.05.0030.zip". Given DJI's lack of attention to detail in the past & the fact that they released a...

    Phantom 3 Professional Firmware v1.5.0030

    Agreed. Release management appears to be lacking, as well as sticking to a consistent and intuitive file naming convention.

    Phantom 3 Professional Firmware v1.5.0030

    Was the filename you used for the Advanced "P3S_FW_V01.05.0030.zip"?

    Phantom 3 Professional Firmware v1.5.0030

    Just went to download the firmware from DJI site. I have an Advanced. Downloaded the file indicated by the Phantom 3 Advanced link but it is labeled P3S_FW_V01.05.0030.zip. That prefix has me concerned. In my mind it should say "P3A_FW...". Has anyone any inside info on this? Is that...

    Battery updated

    Seriously, we aren't hurting anybody here... Just some tech junkies letting off some steam(ed milk).

    Battery updated

    If I wasn't savoring all the cheese in this spread, I'd choose the smart balance and unsubscribe from it. Honestly, I think this is a good break from all the snarky, argumentative, cerebral pissing matches... And now I know who else enjoys really, really bad jokes. These are the ones with whom...

    Battery updated

    When you say you 'hit' the power button, did you do the press, release, press & hold, then release? It is basically a double press of the power button to turn it on & off. Or did you hit it as in "She's got a butter face, but I'd hit that." You butter read the entire manual multiple times...

    Battery updated

    I sure wish Aris24 would whey in before this thread goes out to pasture. I'm sure the mods feel half & half about letting this continue to go sour.

    Ghee, I do agree that a toast is in order. Poor guy came here asking for advice, and instead he got a country crock!

    Not sure what you are all churned up about. There aren't any no fry zones around Land O Lakes.
