Since the last firmware update I've just left the firmware update files on my SD card to be sure all of my batteries get updated, and that was the SD card I put in the camera. When I fired up the I1 with the new camera installed, it immediately started with the "duh-duh-duh-duh" firmware update...

Well, it took half of forever to actually get a replacement camera and gimbal (fortunately, I managed to get the old one to limp along in the meantime), but it finally arrived. After I mounted it and turned the aircraft on, it needed to update the firmware on the camera, but once I did that...

I keep throwing money at the screen but nothing is happening...

I'm another one controller I1 flyer, and I hated the P3 Pro so much I placed my pre-order before the livestream ended :-) It'll make a much better backup than my P2V+, (soon to be known as the backup-backup). Hopefully this will increase the heat to bring waypoints and third party SDK apps to...

Could a sensitivity threshold have maybe changed perhaps? In addition to the camera weirdness, I got a lot of this yesterday also -- specifically, if I set the aircraft on my "usual" launch spot (a section of concrete pad, with I'm sure rebar below) I'd start getting compass calibration errors...

Flew through three batteries on 1.03 this afternoon. I had repeated issues of the camera functionality locking up when shifting back and forth between photo and video, or starting and stopping video recording. In most cases the camera picture would go black and none of the camera control...

Count me in.

At this point it seems likely that if it's going to be introduced anytime soon, it'll probably be at NAB next month.

Yeah, more or less. Had descended to about head height when I "discovered" the fire ants. Glanced down to see wtf, looked back up, gust of wind was blowing it right at me. Reflex hit the elevator to send it away, missed that my orientation was inverted and it accelerated towards me. Pushed...

Think I'll be doing this too while I wait for my repair parts.

Thanks for the head's up. I've already pulled the trigger, so I guess I'll find out. It seems kind of odd that they'd sell the part separately if there was no way to successfully field-install it...

Think I've located all of the parts -- thanks everybody!

Thanks! There's a couple of them floating around; My curiosity is more that connector and whether I can find (and field replace) the cable with the broken clip, or repair it somehow, or if the whole thing needs to go back to the mother ship...

Was out this afternoon practicing my ATTI flying, and didn't realize I was standing on a fire ant trail. After they made their presence abundantly (and intimately) clear, I managed to get disoriented a bit bringing the Inspire home and backed into a brick wall. Oops. The casualties (other...
