Thank you, heads up to people having problems with the latest firmware. Mine wouldn't let meupdate through app for my controller.The adapter for the micro SD wouldn't work either. BUT a separate USB DID using this above tutorial. I thought I was stuck till I tried the USB. Woo hoo. here we go new update!
Michael Powers Yeah I have one battery. When you order, check the link within this video's description. I have the Phantom 3 (both models), case, prop guards and other accessories there now. I'll be adding batteries as soon as they become available!
My controller is not updating. i picked the 1.03.002 for the controller and the 1.04.001 for the P3 Pro as Dji site told me. but my controller wont do the update. what could i do?
Paul Sheaves I have not attempted any other method. It also makes me question....will they release a Windows/Mac application similar to what they had for Phantom2/Phantom 2 V+?
hoping you can advise me .so if I download the latest firmware for my phantom 3 pro install in my aircraft , I can use the exact same firmware to update my controller
Firmware procedures constantly change but feel free to check out my blog post on my website where I show the steps that I performed to update the firmware on my Phantom 3 Pro. Happy New Year!
Michael M The update procedure is quite simple but I have not seen Mac/Windows desktop app. I think that they're doing it this way to force the user to configure all Phantom 3 settings within the DJI Pilot App. I'm like you....I'd like desktop app option too!
Hi Irix, had to do a firmware update yesterday as suffering a ultrasonic sensor error. from that point my app has disconnected where the green gps box usually is and now cant see anything... have tired downgrading phantom and so on but cant get it to connect... have you suffered this or know of any fixes etc?
malcolm martyn I have not and I have updated to the latest firmware. Have you tried an IMU calibration? Check out my tutorial for that on 400orBelow website if you have not.
my light never changes to blue i tried 3 differnt usbs and thumbdrives and sd cards and when i plugged the controller into the drone itself it is green but in the app it says not updated
Do you need a usb or can you use the controller with the usb connected to the drone. Also i only got green for my remote, and my drone is green in 2 lights but red on the other 2 lights. Someone please help me.
Controller will in fact update through DJ GO. I had numerous issues using the same file I uploaded to the quad trying to upload to the controller via usb with no success; couldnt even get the blue light. The Quad was updated with the latest version. Took it outside like I was going to fly; calibrated first. Controller notified of update (leave quad on with no props) then reset controller after update. All Set!
Edmundo Andres I haven't fully explored yet...first flight and only have one battery. It's required though to be able to pair Phantom 3 with DJI Pilot App that was released yesterday =)
Billy Smith Thank you very much! I filmed this one with ruclips.net/video/kgMZjaWfYEA/видео.html . It's my primary studio camera now. I use a GH4 in the field for 4K though.
My Phantom 3 pro will not connect. It is out of date by about 2 years, but I can not find an update file anywhere. I tried with DJI assitant 2 but it fails. Could you please direct me where to find an update file
+IrixGuy's Adventure Channel looking for the correct video to tell me what to do incase the remote doesn't want to update new firmware but can't seem to find it.
Hi i need help!! i cant connect my the camera to my phone! Controller has full response, like i can gimbal up and down so i know they are connected! but i get device not connected on the app! the only thing i can think of is my usb port isn't working!! i nee help. i have 10 people waiting on me to shoot them a video of shelling corn and cant even get off the ground :(
I have a very similar problem. The app will not recognize it has a drone attached to it and will not allow me to access the camera screen... I have no idea what's up :(
I tried everything, even bought a new USB port for the controller on eBay for $40.. was positive that was the problem, but I'm back to square one. Exactly like you, can't get phone to connect when everything is on. Green light on controller too so I know that part is connected..
I have a Phantom 3 advance, I was able to updated the firmware on the quadcopter but not the controller. I used the same bin file and I did delete the text file that was generated while I was updating the quadcopter. The red light stays on the controller with a single beep repeating for about five minutes and the unit eventually turns itself off. I tried it twice, same result, can someone help?
+Mila Mayer I found out quite by accident that I can update the firmware with the DJI GO app.Have both your quadcopter and controller on with the app running, on top center of the screen where the GPS safe to fly is displayed, click on that, the aircraft status menu should pop up. the first line on the menu is overall status, if your firmware needs updating it will display update required click on that and it will update the firmware for your controller. Let it updated the LED light on the far left should turn blue when it turns green its done. Took me about five minutes, let me know if it works for you.

+Jack Chapman Happy to help and be sure to check out 400orBelow website for my other tutorials, as well as Phantom 3 (all models) and accessories.
Thanks mate - great info
Good Job!! I haven't ordered mine yet. Seems like I'm already hearing about issues and no spare batteries until maybe June???

Hi there,
Is it impossible to do this update without a USB adapter for the SD card? There must be another way surely?
Paul Sheaves I have not attempted any other method. It also makes me question....will they release a Windows/Mac application similar to what they had for Phantom2/Phantom 2 V+?

thanks for the reply, yes saw your blog but could not find the part where you update thanks in advance and a happy new from the Netherlands
Is there an assistive software for the p3 like the p2 had? Why is it so much more complicated to update the p3??

What the new firmware brings ? whats the new features, will it be able to do waypoints?
Edmundo Andres I haven't fully explored yet...first flight and only have one battery. It's required though to be able to pair Phantom 3 with DJI Pilot App that was released yesterday =)
What 4k camera are you using to make your tutorial videos? Quality is amazing.
Billy Smith Thank you very much! I filmed this one with ruclips.net/video/kgMZjaWfYEA/видео.html . It's my primary studio camera now. I use a GH4 in the field for 4K though.
Whats the link to the other video?
Which video? BTW subscribe to my channel and I have my videos broken down by drone model. I also have an all encompassing drone videos playlist :)
@@IrixGuy the part where u said u can find it in my other video it was maybe the steps of how update with sd card or so?
@@IrixGuy my phantom has the left first light with a green/red light and im not sure what to do since the controller is not connecting to my phone
@@IrixGuyment the firmware where can i get it cant seem to find it
My Phantom 3 pro will not connect. It is out of date by about 2 years, but I can not find an update file anywhere. I tried with DJI assitant 2 but it fails. Could you please direct me where to find an update file
I’m not sure :(. Have you tried Google search for the various firmware versions?
Is the firmware for the phantom 3 quad and the phantom 3 controller the same?
Billy Smith Yup, same firmware.
How do you turn on the controller? Do you do it the same way you turn on the phantom battery?
+windows 98 pro The power button. It's the bottom-left button on the controller.
How many times do you press it and for how long do you press each time?
you press it about 37 times, then it'll turn both antennas into curly Q pig tails and it should start to update.
I am having trouble on the latest firmware update on the controller.myself. tried a hundred time the drone itself updated properly
+Bruce P Check out my Phantom 3 firmware update blog post on my 400orBelow website. Best of luck!

Bruce P Drop me a message via my Facebook fan page or my website and I'll happily reply with a direct link for you.
How do I get the latest firmware
I wonder if it's still supported by DJI? Historically, they'd just down through the app.
@@IrixGuy says latest is from 2017 I even called them and they confirmed
Cant a simple USB stick be used ?? why the sd card and adapter ?
This was how I did it and I didn't encounter any issues. Firmware update procedures have changed quit a bit since I posted this video though.
Where the heck is the controller firmware download?
Check out my Phantom 3 firmware update how-to on my 400orBelow website blog.
Did you get the firmware from dji.com?

USB debugging is probably off. Turn it on
Hey! Thank you for the input! How do I go about that if I may ask
Where is the link with controller firmware???
+EveryDayIsDifferent It should still be there. Let me check.
I have a Phantom 3 advance, I was able to updated the firmware on the quadcopter
but not the controller. I used the same bin file and I did delete the text file that was generated while I was updating the quadcopter. The red light stays on the controller with a single beep repeating for about five minutes and the unit eventually turns itself off. I tried it twice, same result, can someone help?
I have the same issue here... SOS~

+John Thanks a million! 🙏 thank you!! it worked. now I need to figure out the new upgrade!!! going crazy.
+Mila Mayer Your welcome, enjoy flying your Phantom.
+John Tam thanks!! i was about to throw a fit
Thanks for keeping us up-to-date
Heli Fan Ensenada MY PLEASURE. Stay tuned for lots more Phantom 3 videos. I've only touched the surface =)
Mine wont update, Phantom worked fine but the controller wont. Guess I'm going to try tech support.
Bill_R I put the update file on a normal thumbdrive and plugged it into the controller and it worked.
Bill_R Woohoo! I bet you're excited to fly!
Make sure its unzipped into the root directory of the drive
Dirk Streefkerk Awesome. That must be a sigh of relief =)
Note that now the controller is updated via the DJI Go app.
How? I can't figure out where the update is for the controller in that app...
I can't upgrade my 3 standard help
Check out my 400orBelow website blog. I posted a Phantom 3 troubleshooting post there. Best of luck!
+Leon Worthy You update the controller now via the app.
Hey, you should delete this. This doesn't work this way anymore.
