That's what I assumed the problem was. Even experienced folks takeoff a little early occasionally. I wait a quite a while and even go up straight for 20 feet or so, and then pause for a moment to make sure all is good. I find it's usually when you have someone else there is when I push things a...

Probably didn't wait long enough for a proper gps satellite lock and recorded homepoint. As you started flying it got the lock and recorded the homepoint as you were flying (100 ft away) at some point. If you were in a wooded area the trees could easily have been blocking enough satellites to...

You're correct, you need GO4 version 4.3.60 for it to work with the RID aircraft firmware. Just use the Lightening browser that's built into the smart controller. Go to DJI and then locate the Mavic 2 series software. Download GO4 which will be the latest version right from the website. When it...

Make sure you have the latest firmware which has remote ID. You must also download and install the latest version of GO4 directly from DJI. Go to the DJI website with the lighting browser in the smart controller, and locate the latest version of GO4. After the install, reboot the controller and...

I've been using MAS props on my M2Z for several years. I haven't noticed much difference, maybe slightly quieter do to a different tone. I love the colors though, especially orange.

When I started go4 app today on my Smart Controller, it came up right away and wanted to update the firmware with the flight data changes. It was a very short update, probably less than a minute. Not the usual long update process. I also followed the AirData instructions to update and setup...

You need to make sure the wifi is turned on and log into your home network. If out in field use your phones hotspot and log into that. After that's working you also need to log into your dji account on whatever app you're using. After that, setup all your parameters you want and you should be...

I've never understood the infatuation with flying as far away as possible. Personally, I like to stay somewhat close by in case something goes wrong, and there is so many things that can go wrong. Out over water is even worse. I haven't watched any videos in a quite a while, I thought maybe...

I would think you could buy new batteries or have them rebuilt. Maybe not, I haven't checked into it, but you can buy new batteries for ancient laptops and radios.

Both that and the Litchi compatibility is why I'll be keeping my Mavic 2 for many more years. 4 or 5 years old and still looks and functions like brand new. I have found no reason to change to anything else. However, I don't think your camera swap would be possible.

You're right, it makes no sense. Why should you have to guess at a RID serial number and register it, before it shows you the RID serial number? But I'm glad you got working and this should help someone else who is having problems with it. Thanks

You also need to download and install the latest version of GO4 directly from the DJI website. I just looked on mine and the GO4 (app) version is 4.3.60 which seems to work fine. So, in addition to the aircraft firmware update you also need to make sure you have the latest GO4 version. If you...

I'm not at home right now, but if I remember correctly there's a button on the front left side that has a curly arrow on it indicating go back. If you press it once it goes back one screen, press it again and it will say to press it again to exit (GO4). After you do that you are back to the...

It sounds like GO4 app crashed, but the controller was otherwise working fine. Maybe a memory issue or something like that. Next time try restarting the GO4 app. Also make sure you're firmware and app are all up to date. The controller itself will work without the screen working at all. If you...

Range and height restriction has to be do to a setting. Maybe it's in beginner mode or not logged on to your account or something like that.
