LOL!Be careful when you attach sun pictures. I heard they can hurt you eyes.

The Mavics camera is just like a cell phones camera and as its a wide angle of view will not be harmed by the sun. You can photograph the solar eclipse.
Can I photograph the eclipse with my smartphone? | Total Solar Eclipse 2017
I tried allowing 30' extra and like you, couldn't capture the sun as it was too high; but I definitely got some footage that I'm pretty happy with and you see the shadow racing across the plains from th top left....I didn't use mine either,but I tried! LOL! 30 degrees up pan wouldn't get the sun into the picture,since it was almost directly overhead during the eclipse.I also got a notice for a update! (Thanks,DJI) your timming is perfect!View attachment 20299 I now get a compass error,so I'm sure it now needs calibration again! Turns out the update is for a Spark! Who flying a MP gives a ratt's azz about a Spark! Enough already, DJI! I'll contact you when my MP is having problems! Chill out,and take a break!
