Searched for this issue with the Mini3 Pro, but couldn't find anything. Flying this evening shooting a Hyperlapse and landing prior to the Civil twilight ending at my latitude, still had decent light and VLOS. I was hovering at 3.5' AGL over a concrete driveway with 21% ? battery and upon trying to manually land, the M3P stopped responding to down stick and a screen warning of "Area under aircraft unsuitable for landing. Control aircraft to land in safe area". I was hovering over the same flat, clear concrete driveway when I tried auto land and got the same warning.
I moved the drone to a couple of different areas, but same results and I was burning up battery trying to get it down on the ground.
I got the countdown to RTH at 15% and had to cancel that as it started to climb. ( odd in that I was within about 40' of my home point and thought it wouldn't climb to RTH, but I digress). I hovered toward a garage light and after canceling the RTH I finally could manually land at 14% battery.
My question is, if this drone can be used for low light operations, what can be done to assure it doesn't go into this " won't land mode" again?
