MEMS rings a bell.

I thought the same, but there are a shed load of owners out there for whom the tapping fix worked. I believe there are moving parts in the IMU that sense the change in acceleration and g, they're obviously very small. Anyhow, I fitted a used IMU, sourced from ebay for £30. Just fitted it and it...

I have tried this, including removing the IMU and opening it up, this is what it looks like inside, photo attached. The middle part looks like a chip but I guess is the accelerometer. It's had a lot of 'tapping' but I'll give it another go. Edit: Just had the IMU out again and gave it a good...

90 views and no comments, I guess no one else has had this problem then. Found a used IMU/Accel on ebay, seems the only cheap repair option atm. I removed and stripped the IMU/ Accelerometer but there are no moving parts visible.

Hmm, 90 views and not one offer of advice. After Googling it appears a common fault amongst crashed Phantoms, but mine hasn't been crashed. I decided to remove the IMU / accelerometer from the drone and took it apart but there don't appear to be any moving parts in there so not sure how so many...

Hi all, my P3A has sat in it's box for the last 18 months for various reasons. After having a stiff word with myself I decided to fire it up and see how things went. I've kept the batteries charged to approx 75% every couple of months and last night fully charged them all. After starting the RC...

So, Ive given up. Downloaded v 3.1.30 and opened it up to be greeted by unable to open resource file message.

Hmm, doesnt look like its worth the possible hassle involved. Prior to trying out v2.9.1 on the new phone, Ive been using v3.1.30 on another phone with no problems other than no map in the map box. As I need a version from v3.1.6 onwards, is there any specific version from 3.1.6 to 3.1.30...

Ok, its clicked, my mistake. So, Ill check that file for the fw version Im running at the weekend but I guess its virtually confirmed. Is it possible to install an earlier fw version to the ac?

Oso, thanks for the info. Unfortunately Im away from my laptop until the weekend to check that log file. Can you confirm its the sd card in the camera I need to look at, I thought that just collected still and video images? Having read the release notes to the firmware version v1.11.20, Ive met...

Just tried to fly again, restriction still apparent. So, how the (Mod Removed Language )do I find out what my firmware is? I have never updated the firmware since I bought the drone, why does it display n/a? Oso, Im on android 7. Ive also signed out and back in again, online.

I started up the P3A, controller and app with the intention of checking the firmware. This time, the app went into the safety tutorial, and at the end it gave me a choice of altitudes to select. It was on 30m and I selected 120m. Ill check tomorrow if this is the fix, but I have read of...

I've installed DJI Go v2.9.1 onto a phone as its the last Go version with Google maps. Went flying and my P3A wont go above 50m or further than 30m. I then get the message that max distance / height has been reached. I have distance limit turned off and am not in beginner mode. After looking up...

Just taken delivery of a set for my P3A. So far only managed a hover test in the back garden, but I can't honestly say they sound any quieter than oem dji.

My props arrived, very quickly actually, considering they came from the US. The threaded 'nut' is not an integral part of the prop but is secured in place and can be moved slightly. Difficult to tell if its metal or plastic without scratching the surface, which I don't intend to do. The edge of...
