Hi. I would greatly appreciate some help and advice with getting started with Litchi. I'm not sure what firmware I need to download if any. Currently I'm using very old firmware (think 1.4) and don't want to update to the newest firmware if it doesn't work with Litchi or I don't have to to use...

Have you tried this yet?

I guess what I really am wanting to know is what to expect if I upgrade. Pros and cons

I'm on 1.3.2 and considering this update. I know some updates between 1.3.2 and this one have limited range and other issues. Have those been corrected? Is it a bad idea to update?

I'm on 1.3.2 and it sounds like that is where I should stay. I don't fly in very cold weather. Is the battery update still necessary?

If I decide to try 1.4.001 and want to downgrade to 1.3.2 does it work with the same iOS app version? I don't think I've update the app to the version required to fly 1.4.001. I don't have my iPad with me or is check.

Thanks guys for the responses. Based on the mixed advice I'm going to hold off for now. Hopefully a few others will chime in. I'd like to try the intelligent flight modes, but not at the risk of drifting and additional restrictions. Is range affected and video quality? I haven't had to do the...

I'm flying a phantom 3 advanced with version 1.3.20 and haven't upgraded to 1.4.0010 yet mainly because I'm so happy to finally have stable and reliable firmware. I know 1.4.0010 has the Intelligent flight modes, but their implementation appears to fall short. Is the newest firmware 1.4.0010 as...

Thanks guys! I'm convinced the one piece is the way to go, but am still considering the shorter version since it allows for greater movement. Any disadvantage to it over the original?

I can't decide which of David's models to order. The best I can tell they all have about the same performance. I watched the video and am leaning toward the first one he shows. Which do you prefer?

It seems to me that once the battery reaches the level required to return to home it should initiate RTH, not keep flying the mission. I could see some circumstances, like running waypoints where this would not be desirable, however it would be simple to allow the operator to disable RTH in that...

I'm having a hard time figuring out the P and M mode settings and getting back to the auto camera setting. I'm sure this has been covered, but can someone point me in the right direction? Any help explaining what they are and a method for determining optimum settings would be greatly appreciated.

Reading this thread my first thought was, "I hope this thread does not teach someone how to hijack a P3." I think it's good to be aware it could happen, but I don't think discussing specifics on how it could be accomplished are in any of our best interest. Just my two cents...

I read somewhere that B&H photo has a warranty through square trade.

Did the P3 have HL at some point, or was it advertised it would? I thought i read it had it somewhere
