Hello, just bought a P3S

I tried flying it and it kept saying RC signal lost and wouldn't take off
 
Noob. Mine did that. Had to reset everything 3 times then it started working.

Your good for 4 flights easily with the controller. Most buy one extra battery so you can keep on hammering!
 
Noob, restarted phone/iPad, turned off drone and controller and shut down app. I hope you don't have a dud and this stuff helps out

Definitely taking this thing back. Not sure I'll get another one. Kind of has me soured on it now.
 
I am going to exchange it today and give it another try. Hopefully I can the firmware to install today.

Good luck, brother! :)
 
If you decide to return it for another one...

I purchased my P3S one day before this firmware update was announced. I read all the issues that everyone was having, and I decided to not update. So far, all I do is cancel any of the update requests, and everything is working fine for me, FWIW.

I may give that a try if the new does the same thing. Was having RC signal lost issues too. Couldn't even get the thing to take off
 
I didn't link the RC to the PS3. I guess I missed that step. I assume this is why it was blinking 'RC signal lost'.
 
So...it's all good now?
 
off amazon
 
I can't even get the blades to turn
Noob, I am glad this new one is working better. Just look at the user manual. I read the whole thing before I went flying. It tells you in it how to start and stop it either with the remote or app. Have fun!
