    Variance between Barometer (h) height and VPS height

    Thanks everyone for your thoughts/advice. Yes I am aware that the VPS is only valid until ~ 9m and it appears to be working correctly on my drone.... I am wondering if anyone else is seeing up to 11m difference in the readings between the VPS and the barometer (H) height value over the course...

    Variance between Barometer (h) height and VPS height

    I normally see a difference between the barometer height and the VPS height across a flight, but currently I am seeing this value be as great as 11m under the following conditions: at sea level, max flight height 30m, duration of flight 24min., air temp ~ 18deg Celsius, stable low wind...

    Remote controller connection error - DJI Go 4

    I found it most reliable to use the the large USB for connection... when they diagnosed the failed main board DJI was able to do this quite quickly.. it had been that way since new.. I can only suggest seeking repair through DJI

    Remote controller connection error - DJI Go 4

I have since been using a connector that goes to the large USB port on the bottom of the RC and have not had a Go 4...

    Remote controller connection error - DJI Go 4

    DJI have been good to deal with in on this matter. Worked though all possible diagnostics... sent them log files and a video of it happening. Ultimately they asked my to send the entire set drone/controller in to them. They have tested it and found the main board on the RC is faulty. it is in...

    Remote controller connection error - DJI Go 4

    Mine is currently being tested by DJI.. as the problem is intermittent it will not be straight forward... I agree it is very disconcerting when it happens... (otherwise the tech is fantastic).. at a guess the problem for me is originating in: DJI Go 4 app, or the RC controller is not working...

    Remote controller connection error - DJI Go 4

    Thanks for your thoughts on this. Scenario is: - All cables are effectively new (totally new for 2 of them) - Phone and RC ports are clean and have been managed carefully - Interesting that DJI Go 4 auto restarts for you.. for me never.. a reboot of phone is required. - Plenty of processor...

    Remote controller connection error - DJI Go 4

    Hi All, Like others I am suffering from an intermittent failure of the DJI Go 4 mid flight, where it reports Remote controller connection error .. the screen freezes and goes B&W. Only a phone reboot re-establishes the app. I'd be interested in any insights others have to remedy the problem. By...
