I had mine out quite a bit now and just starting to take it out a distance away. Just amazed at how stable and reliable it seems to be. Love all of the built in flight features. Just putting together my first edited video now. Enjoy the new bird! I can't get enough of mine.

So I took off my Garmin watch last night before I went out to fly. As always I got the "Calibrate compass" message scrolling across the banner in red so I went out to calibrate it. Still came up with the magnetic interference when I went to calibrate it. I decided to play with it a little and...

I have had the "Magnetic interference" message pop up both times I have tried to calibrate my compass on my new Mavic Air. Both times I moved around to try and find a place without interference and the message still came up. The second time I was in the middle of nowhere so I can't imagine that...

In my case it automatically booted up in ATTI mode due to the lack of GPS lock. It worked fine because it never acquired enough GPS strength to switch back and forth. So if I am understanding you correctly I can manually set it to ATTI mode and it won't attempt to search for a GPS lock? I would...

I just spent the weekend rock climbing and had an issue with GPS connection. Had to fly it in ATTI mode and it worked really well. I did have to switch to sport mode if I wanted to get above the set altitude height but then just flew it back down to me and switched back before landing. If it...

Will the drone automatically switch from ATTI mode to a GPS lock mode if you start out flying it in ATTI mode? I flew mine in ATTI mode all weekend while we were rock climbing because of poor GPS reception. It worked fine and when I wanted to fly more than 50 feet off the ground I would switch...

Was feeling the same way but quickly getting comfortable with it. Spent the fist few flights just enjoying flying it around and never even looked at the camera stuff. Took my first video this weekend and realizing that I need more time getting all of it down to produce good video. Love playing...

Thanks for this info, I was wondering why my air climbed to a RTH altitude sometimes and not others. Good to know.

Just picked up my first drone last night after many hours of research and reading through this forum. Want to thank all of you that contribute. The wealth of information is invaluable. I have successfully had my bird in the sky and so far the newest FW hasn't plagued my air like it has many...
