    Replacement Shell Cracked

    Not a very happy flier tonight. I just updated to the latest firmware and IOS App for my first flight at a beach Monday. All was going well with AC and RC while checking all my settings after the update so I powered down and inspected the bird. I have 2 cracks on 1 arm that look bad enough to...

    P3 Advance (rapid yellow flashing)

    I just updated my P3A firmware Thursday. Your original post describes the yellow lights, are you hearing the beeping? When the update is done the bird is powered off and the SD card removed. Once I read that the update was successful, I format the card for use. My bird sat there with the D-DD...

    DJI Repair Quote for WIFI Video link module...

    I am waiting for a P3S to arrive Friday. They also came back with $293 repair bill for a P2V+. I am doing this for a friend as a favor. DJI asked for proof of purchase when I mentioned the Wi-Fi should be fixed for free. I did not bother to ask my friend after a month of waiting for repair...

    Headed to DJI for repair.

    Looks like the bird is coming back in the same shape it went there in! DJI will not repair the WiFi module when out of warranty. The user does not want to pay that much money for a 2 year old unit. Now I will find out if they are charging the $65 to have looked at it. I also asked if there were...

    Headed to DJI for repair.

    Well, I received the estimate today from DJI and it is not good news! They want to charge $293 for all repairs. While I don't disagree with them finding other things wrong, I do have an issue with DJI charging $159 for the WiFi module when there are so many reports of these being defective. I...

    Headed to DJI for repair.

    It is going to CA even though I am on the East Coast. Got 1 email saying cost might only be shipping if choosing no on the repair cost, but got another saying it could be $65 an hour for diagnostics if choosing not to repair it. So we will see. I am hopeful the Wifi fix is free since I have read...

    Headed to DJI for repair.

    Hello, Phantom 3 Advance owner here, trying to help a friend with a Vision Plus Video problem. I sent it in to DJI for diagnostics and was wondering about a couple things. Wanted some input from anyone who has sent one in. It has the WiFi (no video) issue, but also has a gimble obstruction...

    Looks like a nice place! Cant comment on state parks, have not looked into it yet. Would love to finally meet another Phantom owner, but I am still a working stiff so limited on chances! While I am not looking to break rules, I fly unless someone kicks me out. Unless I know ahead you are not...

    P3P shakes

    My P3A started shaking the other day. Turned out to be the controller. I actually had a minor crash because of it. The right stick was not working correctly and "sticky", could not gain proper control. Took controller apart and has been ok since. Have not flown except a test and need to...
