    P3P - Mainboard Failure

    I appreciate the feedback. I've already started parting out the Phantom and had sold the camera to someone on eBay... I guess i'll be refunding his money though... I was mistaken and thought the mainboard referred to the central board on the Phantom.

    P3P - Mainboard Failure

    Phantom 3 Professional - "No Signal"

    Just had this identical issue. Sent it into dji and the main board needs to be replaced. They must've shipped out a batch of these with faulty hardware....and they expect us to pay for it. Not happening

    P3P = Giant Paperweight

    The more i read into this no signal/no video issue, it seems to be a known hardware failure. I purchased the P3P last July, and have flown it maybe 5-6 times total. Out of the blue last week when i went to fire it up, it presented the issue. Nothing else has changed since the last successful...

    Long Distance Flight tips?

    The only time the video issue occurred was when I was near a lifeguard tower. Even though I had LOS, I've been getting a lot of interference and compass warnings near this location. I've also recalibrated the compass several times. I'm using the IOS app, with a 6 Plus device.
