After reading hundreds of threads, I still can't resolve my issue!
Purchase Phantom 3 Standard in Dec 2016. After a (mid sized) crash, I had to replace a few parts. When starting back up, the tiny camera LED would get stuck on solid Red. So following instructions, I manually downgraded the firmware, all the way to P3C_FW_V01.05.0070. Fired up and all on AC is well! Camera LED is solid green. Link to RC light on AC is solid green. I can even control the props and camera with the remote! BUT...
The LED on the remote is still red. In the DJI GO App (3.1.1), I get "Remote Controller Connected, Connect your aircraft. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to do it! I've tried the "Graduation Hat" method, but it says:
"Current version 1.7.90.
Get Firmware Version Failed
Select Firmware Version
None"
My guess is, that the RC is using the newest firmware (1.7.90) and the AC is using the older (1.05.0070) which is why I can't see the camera, but can still control RC functions. But no matter how I try to adjust the firmware of the AC (up to 1.6 or to 1.7), the AC gets stuck in the mode where the camera LED is solid red with a long, unending beep.
I have tried to update just the RC firmware, but it will not function through the app and I can't get it to function through the micro USB port. HELP... just want to fly again!
