So I tried the update last night not thinking twice and on the app on my iPhone 6S Plus it froze at 50%. Shut the bird down then turned it back on and I got the super loud beeping. I could let it sit there and beep because my kid was sleeping and my wife would have gotten passed I'm sure so today when I get home I'm going to power it up and let it sit there and beep for 25min or am I screwed all around? Any of this have anything to do with needing to update the RC first? Any suggestions would be helpful and much appreciated...
I saw the message to update again, this time to 1.4.60. What's different about this update that wasn't fixed on the last one last week?

I don't think the remote needs to be first.
Do take a look at what is on your SD card.

I have been watching the problems with P3S after firmware updates since August and so far that has been a big nope.

I had no luck with my android based nvidia shield k1 either when trying to update the Dji firmware so I had to use my iPhone....
I am a newbie to the Phantom but have been flying NAZA M v2 successfully for 2+years. I have a P3Pro purchased 3wks ago - it came with Firmware v 1.4. I bought an iPad Mini3 and downloaded the latest DJI Go app - normally I would not download new firmware until it is tried and tested. Decided on this occasion to get the latest FW which was only a couple of days old v1.7.00. I ran into many of the problems noted above. Could someone who has uploaded the latest versions and is flying successfully verify that what I am seeing in my ABOUT screen is in fact the correct firmware for the Ph3Pro to date?

I am new to forums too and can find nowhere on the site as to how to post a new thread - which must be easy When You Know How! Apologies for tagging this into this thread.

My P3s is about 4 months old, I have only done 2 firmware updates (now 1.2.40) and never had any range issues, flew 1850m (stock) the other day. So i guess I wont be updating!

Trying to update to firmware 1.5.70. Aircraft gets to 4% then fails many many times. Stuck with the loud beeping. Sometimes now it shows poor signal or says that I have an Inspire. Grrr..

JTC if you still have loud beeping...turn everything off reformat sd card and try again making sure you select phantom 3 standard in the dji go app menu and let it do its thing!

I changed from using my Galaxy Tab A to my S5 for the update and it worked! When I was using the Tab, it was very unstable regarding the Go App. it would rapidly go from the picture of an Inspire to the Phantom. So in any event, it finally worked. I will be very hesitant to update in the future.
About five months I think.
I started off with only a 200 meter range. With some help, I found a bad connection on the main antenna, sorted that out and got an instant 1km range and was looking to improve on that but since the upgrade I'm lucky to get 400 meters.
Never had any video downlink problems either previously.
was the connection problem on the RC side or the aircraft?
