Dissapointed. Not flying after first flight.

[Samuel Quinn]

Received AC three days ago. Updated firmware for AC Rc and batteries. First flight yesterday was great. Went to take it out today now it wont do nothing. Says IMU fail to initialize and barometer issue. Im gutted. There was no crash ect as I treat it with care.
I have tried calibrating IMU and compass several times to no avail. I see someone else have this issue. I have tried new sd card ect....Nothing. Any advice most welcome. Photos attached.

Might try rolling back the firmware in the P3 to default using Assistant 2 and see how that goes.

Fwiw, I have an Apple iPad Air 2 + Cellular and I got some barometer error with iOS 10.0.1 and 10.0.2. Went away in 10.1 and 10.1.1 so it was an Apple mistake with it.

Thanks. Tried down grading then upgrading. It gets to IMU calibration 100 but no green tick people speak of. Starting to wish I never spent my money on this. Wonder if the retailer will take it back tomorrow

The air craft after resting or hibernating for few days now woke up.
The chap started and flew. Crazy bird. By the way, I am using a Chinese phone from China. The phone is good and cheap. Oukitel K6000, battery 6000mah, memory and ram very good. I am not advertising for them. Just to tell you all that China is now as advance and as good as the established.
Oh, firmware is the latest. 179 and rc also latest.
