    Selling DJI P3S ?

    Do I need to do anything like a reset? Also can't remember if I registered it on the dji site. Do I need to unregister if I have? Thanks

    Basic questions moving beyond Beginner mode

    I'd say just go fly it. I only just took mine off beginner mode the last time I flew it. You will poop your pants when you see your £4×× phantom become a spec in the sky but just keep aware of what your doing and keep LOS. I've set my RTH at 40m. This is something I've not used yet but plan on...

    First loss of control and return to home.

    Haha love this story. Suprised it fought the winds in RTH mode. I saw a Video of someone who got RTH and it just could not fight the wind to get back.

    Phantom 3 4k Crash after 1 min of flight, i don't know..

    Is there a way of disabling CSC? Seems a stupid idea.

    Phantom 3 Standard - Poor signal / performance out of the box.

    Not seen the blue prompt before. You can go into the app, Other >> About page. to see what firmware your on.

    New firmware 1.7.8 (01.07.0082) P3S

    Suppose your right. So for the failsafe would turning the RC off be the best tester?

    New firmware 1.7.8 (01.07.0082) P3S

    I don't ever want to do a RTH. Soon I need to try some ATTI flying in case I ever need to switch to it.

    Phantom 3 Standard - Poor signal / performance out of the box.

    Dji recommend an IMU calibration before your first flight. I did one as I think the X figure on the imu on Mine was not on zero. For what it's worth I updated my bird straight out the box and had no problems so far.

    New firmware 1.7.8 (01.07.0082) P3S

    Took it off beginner for the first time tonight. So scary watching it just fly so far away. Think I only took it to around 60m high and around 120m distance. So far no loss of signal although I do get 'loosing signal' flash every now and then but I still have full control.

    SD Card Format

    Is there a preferred format? Mines in MOV and it also will not play in WMP. Although it Will in VCL player. Is either format better than the other?

    New firmware 1.7.8 (01.07.0082) P3S

    I'm yet to turn beginner mode off yet so can't say if I've got naff range or not. One thing I don't plan on doing though is flying my P3S far away. I want LOS at all times.

    Firmware update yes or no?

    What firmware are you on? Mine was on 1.2 out the box. I think 1.6 also stops the 'battery shut off in flight' problem which was another thing I didn't want to happen.

    Firmware update yes or no?

    Personally I updated straight out the box. 1) because i just thought of I get a warranty issue DJI might refuse as the firmware is not up to date. 2) I don't know any different as I've never flew it on any other firmware.
