My bird (P3Advanced) was in storage for two years, but appears to have missed only one firmware update. However, that could be the reason. I have made five short flights so far, up to an altitude of 200 ft and the slow, creeping rise or fall is still evident, along with the periodic warning that...

You are not alone. I have exactly the same problem and the bird will not hold altitude; it is either rising or falling slowly. However, a solution has been offered and I shall see if that works.

Living where I do, in the Highlands of Scotland, helps me keep a sensible perspective on this sort of reporting. I live alongside a NATO military low flying area, where aircraft are often passing overhead at ridiculously low altitude. Of course, it is absolutely necessary for military pilots to...

I'm thinking of investing in an underwater drone, so on wet days I can explore the river at the bottom of the garden; then if it rains it won't matter, it'll be a win/win situation either way...

Yes, thank you. I recalibrated the IMU and all now seems to be in order. Aircraft appears to be 100%.

Hi guys, I have just fired up my P3A after two years in storage. Everything appears to be okay, but it is not holding steady for altitude. At the end of my second flight I got a warning message advising me that the downward sensor was unstable and that I should fly with caution. Just wondering...

Thanks. Typical, It's now pouring with rain. I guess I shall have to wait until tomorrow.

Sorted. I did a quick search on Google and found what I needed. Everything now appears to be working okay. Can't wait to make my first flight.

Hi Guys, I shall apologise in advance if this particular subject has been done to death already, but I shall ask politely anyway. I have a Phantom 3 Advanced which hasn't been flown for a couple of years due to illness. I now find there is no link between the TX and the Aircraft due to the...

Successfully updated both the aircraft and the camera. My nexus 7 was turned on when charging and automatically updated the installed app without my assistance, so no apparent need to uninstall then reinstall as advised elsewhere. I calibrated the compass and checked the IMU status but no...

Is that available in the new 'Go' app? If so, can you advise, please, where I can find it? I have just installed the app and my bird is force landing with more than 30% battery left, which can't be right. I installed the app a couple of hours ago and have searched for the failsafe settings but...

No, as mentioned above, I am still waiting on the Android version of Go and it was also too windy to fly today. But DJI Pilot app confirmed my having the latest firmware installed, so I assume all is okay.

Yes, same for me Mark, so I formatted and went through the whole procedure a second time, just to make sure, with exactly the same result. So I just ignored it. The upgrade was reported as being successful and that's good enough for me.

I updated the bird and the controller this afternoon. Both exercises went without a hitch. But I haven't flown yet, too wet and windy here. All I need now is for DJI to release the Android version of Go.
