I have recently received my Phantom 3 Advanced back from California service, safely packed in its two boxes, But no notes or write up on what's been done to correct the problem. So I called and asked, after a 15-20 wait, I finally got the word, the IMU was faulty and was replaced. I asked whether I should do a re-calibration on the IMU before flight, I was told you can if you like?
Other questions remain unanswered; was the firmware upgraded because there was an upgrade during the time they had it? I found out that was not the case because it loaded when I went to install it - Good Part. I tried to load up the upgrade to my controller but it failed miserably, to take. Thinking I was out of luck there, I turned the controller off and withdrew the card. To my surprise when I reactivated the controller and the drone, the upgrade appeared to loaded itself from the drone to the controller - so it seemed?? Unexpected Pleasure.
Only one problem, I can no longer Re-Calibrate my IMU because it appears in Ghost form (A Phantom), the tabs are there but inactive, and I no longer have battery status - the most important part. INPUT GREATLY APPRECIATED
