Autopilot not connecting to my P3P. Is it because I am in China?? I tried all I know.

[Ed.south]

I have had my P3P for about a Month.
Logged 69 flights and would like to use some of the features in Autopilot now (follow me, orbit,....), but it autopilot won't connect to P3P.
I made sure DJI App is closed,
I tried with P3P waiting at launch position.
Tried at 10meters up.
Tried in car
Tried in house
Tried on wifi
Tried on 4G
......
What am I doing wrong??

Autopilot? The DJI APP don't allow that for now, their is no options... How do you try to use this kind of features?

According to 'their' web site Phantom 3 support is coming unless you are a beta tester in which case maybe the new P3 firmware doesn't agree with it - best ask them ?

"Update: DJI has confirmed that the recently released firmware does not support the SDK, even though the release notes claim that it does. Do not update your firmware if you are participating in the beta test."

so I guess I just wait. I am not in the beta.

Yes, beta is going very well, so you will qualify for a free update once the new version is released if you already purchased.
Btw- there is a thread on the forum with test results from the beta testers
