that's amazing. I never would have thought the D-D-D-D! sound was from each individual motor. I just did the same thing - replaced the main board and still getting ESC error. was about to painstakingly swap out each motor, but thanks for the tip!!! my rear left doesn't chirp.

i'm late to the party but figure it doesn't hurt to share. I had the same black screen and logo on my phantom 3 pro following a firmware upgrade on AC and RC. I couldn't connect ac/rc after rc firmware upgraded and needed to re-sync them. This allowed me to connect but was only seeing the...

you mean, "the issue just started happening. I think after a firmware update". get your story together and give DJI a ring :P

i think the ESC issues i was having definitely didn't help help. I was testing it when the incident happened. it was flying well but I noticed that EM a few times "propulsion output limited to conserve battery". I had never seen that prior to the esc errors. my own fault for having it a...

Outcome was that it was flying fairly well until it failed to do a return home with 30 percent battery headed up wind. Got an error saying propulsion output limited to conserve battery and couldn't get it to make pace headed back. Was over a river, so was frantically steering towards...

my p3p had a fan, adv does not? can you post a video with sound?

the escs are actually 4 chips above each arm where you see the glue. i believe the IMU is within the black box

the phantom 3 doesn't really have an onboard fan other than the very small one that sits above the square, gray camera apparatus. Sorry to dig up an old thread. I've extensively ripped open my old p3pro and there's no fan inside. stumbled upon this thread searching for p4, which seems to have...

Thanks man, will definitely try that. going to just replace the back left motor this weekend as well. Hard to troubleshoot as it will never seem to fail until a reboot. makes it tough to narrow down that cause and effect. I have a pretty repeatable process to get it functioning now at least...

sorry about that - thought i grabbed the dat. Here is a better test anyway: here is the test with no props. first two with motor ajar. I screwed the t6 in for the remaining stop/starts. rebooting after yielded me an esc error FLY243.DAT let me know if that link doesn't work.

Hey Bud, FLY154 has the props attached (will post another without) First two CSCs in this log have the back left lid ajar a few mm w/ the t6 screw out. I then pressed on the lid firmly and recorded perhaps 4 more stop/starts. There was a definite lag in how fast that prop started with the...

Will do this evening. Appreciate your ongoing interest in my struggles!

I haven't. Will do that in the coming days. It just seems to work perfectly when it does work.

resoldered all of the main motor joints and the symptoms are the same. back left motor seems to still be sticky and will occasionally throw a motor obstructed error. prop sometimes doesn't spin up as quickly as the others. Going to blast it with compressed air later. probably need to replace...

alright, think i finally narrowed it down. It's not the lid per-se. It's taught-ness of the lid on the rear-left arm. I removed the small t6 screw (the one furthest from center of AC) on the rear-left arm and the slight amount of separation between the bottom and top lids seems to fix the...
