A newbs request for help before I contact DJI support... am I missing something?
So, I have the Phantom 3 professional. Pulled it out yesterday for the first time in a long while. My tablet (Shield running Marshmallow would not connect) but since I knew the firmware would be out of date, I wasn't worried, just decided to update and then figure it out.
Downloaded P3X_FW_V01.09.0060.bin onto a MicroSD and updated the Phantom, that worked, no problem. Placed a copy of the file on a thumb drive and plugged into the controller. I waited a few minutes, nothing. When I view the thumb drive, it had written a text file:
==========2016.06.30 16:44:31========== Packet: /mnt/usb/P3X_FW_V01.09.0060.bin, Result: Abort The firmware on the SD card is identical to or older than the current firmware on the remote controller.
OK, so tried to connect the Shield tablet again, still no dice. Tried a Nexus 7 just in case, no dice. I managed to get both tablets connected after I put them into USB debugging mode. Ran the DJI Go App, it said:
Updates Required: The remote controller doesn't support updating throught the app. Update the firmware by connecting a USB drive.
Tried 2 different tumb drives (even though the controller is clearing reading them OK), tried a microsd card reader (removed the txt files) and also tried tethered to the Phantom.. no dice. Same text file, same error message on the App.
Anyone come across something similar? Any thoughts on what else I could try? Was thinking of trying to downgrade firmware and see if that helps?
Thanks in advance.
