DJI Phantom 3 RC Quadcopters how to update the firmware

DJI Phantom 3 RC Quadcopter how to update the firmware
Follow the process described below to upgrade the aircraft, remote controller and battery firmware.

Updating the Aircraft Firmware
Step 1- Check Battery and SD Card Capacity
Ensure the Intelligent Flight Battery has at least 50% power and there is at least 100MB of free space on the SD card.

Step 2- Prepare the Firmware Update Package
1. Download the firmware update package: http://www.quadcoptermall.com/download/.
2. Insert the SD card into your PC. Extract the all downloaded files into the root directory of the SD card. Remove the SD card from your PC.
Ensure the aircraft is powered off then insert the SD card into the SD card slot on the camera.

Step 3- Update the Aircraft
1. Ensure the remote controller is powered off and then power on the aircraft.  Upgrade will begin automatically after aircraft is powered on. 
2. It will take approximately 25 minutes to complete the firmware update. The camera will sound a short pluse of "D-D-D-D" beeping sound to
indicate the upgarde is in progress and sound a "D---DD" beeping sound to indicate the update is complete with success.
3. Check the upgrade status by opening the ".txt" file that is automatically generated after the update. The update is successful if the text "result:
successful" is in the document. Try upgrading the firmware again if the text "result: failed" is found or the gimbal sound a long beep sound.

Updating the Remote Controller Firmware
Step 1- Check Battery and SD Card Capacity
Remote controller firmware is included in the aircraft firmware update package. Use the same update package file that is downloaded
from the DJI official website. Ensure that the remote controller battery level is above 50%.

Step 2- Prepare the Firmware Update Package
1. Extract all downloaded files into the root directory of an SD card or USB thumb drive.
2. Insert the SD card into a SD card reader or the USB thumdrive onto the remote controller USB port when remote controller powered off. If
you do not have a SD card reader, you may insert the SD card into the gimbal and connect the gimbal with remote controller to upgrade the
remote controller.

Step 3- Update the Remote Controller
1. Power on the remote controller and wait 60 seconds until the upgrade begins. Do not power off the remote controller during the update.
2. It  will take approximately  10 minutes to complete the firmware update. The camera will sound a beeping sound and the Status LED on
the remote controller shows solid blue to indicate the update is in progress. The Status LED on remote controller shows solid green and
beeping sound will stop if the upgrade is completed with success. The Status LED on remote controller shows solid red if upgrade is failed.
Try upgrade again.

Updating Intelligent Flight Battery Firmware
The Intelligent  Flight  Battery  is upgraded  during  the aircraft  firmware  upgrade  process.  It is recommended  to keep the upgrade
package files in your SD card.  The upgrade will start automatically after power cycling the aircraft.

Do not perform firmware update while the aircraft is still flying in the air. Only carry out firmware update when the aircraft is landed.
Be sure to update the remote controller's firmware to the latest version after you upgrade the aircraft's firmware.
The remote controller may become unlinked from the aircraft after updating. Re-link the remote controller and aircraft.
Confirm the update results according to the gimbal sounds. It is normal for the aircraft to sound or the LED to blink during the update
process.
Ensure there is only one firmware package file stored on your SD card.
Only storage devices that are formatted for FAT32 and exFAT file systems are supported for aircraft and remote controller firmware updates.
Delete any automatically generated txt files (xxx_GS.TXT) in the SD card when updating multiple remote controllers.
