I just received my new P4P from an authorized dealer on Amazon, fulfilled and shipped by Amazon. When I tried to start it up I was looking at the back (battery) end of the aircraft. When it was going through the startup procedure only the leds on the left side (both front and back) of the aircraft were blinking. The ones on the right side never lit up. When the startup was completed the two left side leds were lit solid red. The bird was also beeping about once per second.
After a lot of fiddling I decided maybe the firmware needed updating so I updated both the controller and the aircraft to the current firmware through the DJI Assistant 2. The RC update went through fine. It took several tries on the aircraft but I finally succeeded with that update. While doing the aircraft update the red leds and beeping continued continuously and I finally realized the beeping was coming from the right hand rear motor. The motor was twitching in time to the beeps and I think there was a problem with it. It seems to turn as freely as the other motors.
I guess I'm about to test out Amazon's return policy unless any one can suggest anything else I might try.
