I thought I would update here... I sent the battery to DJI on a Monday (Feb. 25) and it arrived on Friday afternoon (March 1). The following Tuesday (March 5) I received an email from them stating that the battery had been had been inspected and it was determined it had been over discharged...

Thanks for the tip. I’ll take a look there and hopefully get in the air a little faster.

I talked with DJI CS on chat this morning. Super easy. Printed a shipping label and dropped it off already with UPS. It’s just a real bummer that it came this way new. Gonna have to wait to fly. I hope the rest of it is in better shape than the battery.

That’s what I’m thinking. Nearly 4 hours now doing the same thing.

Yes. It won’t come on. When I try to power on the LEDs will light sequentially from 1-4, then LED 1 flashes once briefly and the rest go out. Nothing after that. It won’t stay on.

I just unboxed my new P4A to put the batteries on the charger. I noticed when I checked both the Tx and aircraft battery they were both low. The Tx would not indicate when I momentarily pressed the power button to check, but it did take a full charge after several hours. The aircraft battery...

Sent you a Pm

I didn’t know that it was compatible with the original P4. I only knew it worked on what I had so that’s why I listed it that way. Thanks for the information!

Still available

FOR SALE: GL300A Controller for Phantom 3 Professional. Used. No known issues. Has always worked great, and has been kept in my case when not in use. Always hangared inside. I am the original owner. I crashed my bird a couple weeks ago due to a bad ESC, and yesterday I got the repair estaimate...

I'm sure you're probably right, but I always try to calibrate when I've moved that far. Maybe its the pilot in me knowing I crossed a couple of isogonic lines and want to "correct" the compass. I don't think it hurts, and I certainly don't think that caused the problem in this case. For the time...

No recent changes or incidents. I had flown it yesterday without incident at my grandparents farm. Today I calibrated the compass before I took off because of the 150 mile change in location back to where I live. It calibrated normally without issue. I guess the motor or ESC decided it was time...

Thanks for that information! The front left arm has the most damage, but the prop is undamaged. Right rear prop is also undamaged. Right front and left rear props had and inch or so missing from one side. I'm assuming they broke on impact. My guess is that since the front left wasn't turning the...

The props were still attached on recovery. Looks like the ESC was the issue. Its a bummer either way.

yes all props were still attached.
