Strange light sequence on Mavic Pro (6 green - 2 red)

[tfrank48]

After getting 13 satellites (or so) and that sweet “your home point has been updated ...” assuring message, then taking off, I see, in sequence, (“constantly”) exactly 6 flashes of green & 2 flashes of red. I have not seen this in any past flights. Flight is stable, with nothing else unusual. I haven’t flown too much distance out., of course. Even after calibration, this occurs.
I have latest firmware,100 % AC and 100% RC, etc.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?
Would viewing the log(s) possibly shed any light on this?

you need to view the online manual there is a passage that explains what the light sequences mean

I just looked at p. 12 and the table on it. I did not see any reference to this particular light sequence, so now I am curious like tfrank48. Did I miss it?

Means your under an altitude restriction zone.

I stand corrected, I am using the manual @ version 1.4, which happens to be for the "vintage" and firmware version at the time of purchase for me. I have not updated anything the Go app, ac firmware, batteries et all since I cracked the boxes.

They now up to version 2.0, so i never see those new warning lights etc. etc.

But upon further investigation, it also may be you have reach "Maximum Flight Radius",

Page 50? or 52? in my version (1.4) and version 2.0 of the manual

Just for curiosity, are you logged into your DJI account?

To be fair, unless I am missing something (quite likely) this sequence is not covered in the manual....

There are 3 possibilities, slow or fast flashing red, low or critical battery.
Or the 3rd, IMU error..
