yeah, i took that thing apart and put it back together probably 10 times to figure it out

Bill, Attached two pics. Yes, you will need an additional expansion bay for underneath the lower battery compartment. You will also need the long v-cable to contact to the guidance computer on the topside. I attached the GPS to the top of the upper expansion bay. I am going to mount the...

Bill, I think the best placement is one battery on top, one battery underneath. The guidance computer and the forward looking sensors are mounted on top of the battery compartment with the additional sensors mounted underneath of the second battery compartment. I can send you pics if you would...

Did your camera come in?

ok, here is the fix. if you have a camera (x3) download the X3 camera update (August 2015), install, then download the current update (April13 2016) install. Should allow it to recover and work properly, then you can use the Assistant software to connect to the aircraft.

i am going to contact them today! thanks for the help. Let me know if you need an pilots. I have my PPL, Section 333 and 700+ hrs of stick time.

What was the turn around time on the repair?

Smootar, I pulled it off the SD card that I put in the camera. I have the same problem when connecting my PC to the aircraft, they just do not talk to each other. Do you have a Video Decoder? That would work ILO the camera.

i just saw that DJI put out a new update for the Matrice

that is an interesting idea. i am going to look and see if i have one. assuming it is booting into windows? i still think a simple reset button like on the inspire would be helpful.

I wondered the same, unfortuneatley after i had already made a decision to do what was not correct. I attached my error log to this reply. Is there any way to reset the firmware?

Kevin, I have had the same problem. PC would not recognize the aircraft, shut it down, now when i turn on the bird all i get is a constant 2 beep pattern. I can connect the controller and ipad, but can not get any input from the controller or control the camera.

I have experienced the same situation as Drone Tech. That being so, I just include it into the cost of everything we do. Where I am there are several military bases and I have had to meet with all of them to get the COA through. I have not had any denied as of yet.

Will the Autoflight work on the Matrice?
