try to know the sustained winds at elevation if possible. as long as they are a good percentage less than the max flight speed (roughly 40 mph in sport), you can fight your way home if need be in sport mode. obviously you also need to keep the distance a bit closer than if it was calm so that...

so this value has always drifted for me. for 95% of my flights, the precision RTH returns the drone within roughly 10 feet +_ in x/y direction of the takeoff point and then i can see that the drone then uses the "images" it takes on takeoff to adjust to the exact takeoff point within a couple...

video feed starts to go first and then I got a CPU overload error on the iPAD next. lost total DJI GO app control but the iPad mini 4 was still running. I initiated a RTH from the controller and it came back perfectly. all onboard video was perfect. black ipad in even 93 degree heat/sun was all...

gotcha. i can definitely see that a down stick input with a non-changing barometer, and maybe other sensor/imu readings indicating non movement could trick it into thinking it was on the ground.

I wouldn't think the barometer (alone) is used to determine if the Mavic has landed. a simple use case would be launching from the top of a hill and then flying down into a valley. the barometric pressure would be more than the takeoff point. then once you fly above where you took off from, it...

i have a mini 4 wifi only and i had this issue today. no apps running in the background. i suspect it's the heat. it was 90+ outside and hard sun on a black ipad. also had the screen brightness all the way up. it's just like leaving my iPhone in the car on a hot day. it either wont start...

in the DJI GO 4 app, i notice that the D value (distance to home point) will immediately start increasing slowly once my mavic and controller is powered on. i am on the latest firmware (900). i tried this inside my house and outside with both my iPhone7 and ipad mini4 (wifi only). in all...

this is my first post here and the following is what i *think* is correct from what i've been reading...so please correct me if i am wrong :) (1) it's my understanding from reading forums and documents that the mini 4 wifi can be used with active track just fine instead of follow me. i saw a...
