    P3 Compass wire problems

    Also curious if anyone thinks it would do damage to the antenna if I were to just hot glue it to the landing leg instead of snapping it into the channel.

Could have gone even further...

    Need firmware advise

    So DJI won't honor their warranty if you were running any FW version other than 1.6 when a malfunction occurs?
