P3 Firmware whats your reason for updating the firmware? (p1, p2, p3, p4, mavic, inspire, etc.)

chapsrlz · Jul 13, 2017

first of all, this is a serious question.

today i have read a lot of comments, not just in phantom pilots, about people getting upset of the firmware update released for the p3, not to mention that there are a lot of comments about how "dji is a crap", "the worst drone company ever", and so on, because each firmware update comes with a lot of bugs, limitations and problems with loosing video at 100 meters.

so, unless you are new into drones/dji, and have no idea that every firmware update is like a coin toss, why are you guys upgrading the same day the firmware is released?

I haven't done mines. Is the firmware going to affect the A2 and naza m v2 controller?

For me enabling of the Precision Landing and landing area check. The landing area check has already proved its worth at least in my case.

I keep P3P FW and Litchi almost-up-to-date because most of my flights are Litchi missions. I presume that keeping them roughly in sync prevents unexpected errors.

I might be wrong and freezing the versions to a known-good combo might be more predictable. But on the other hand, there are some good new Litchi features missing in the old versions.
