Interesting. That puts extra onus on manufacturers like DJI to get things right.

Yep. I worked in IT for many years. I prefer letting early adopters work out potential bugs with new releases. In this case, I wanted to see if I was missing out on new features but the release notes are laconic so I'll stick with the current firmware.

Thank for the link. I checked the release notes for this version: "What’s New | Fixed some known issues." Wow. So wordy! 😁

I recall seeing some discussion about a few problems with the latest firmware. That leaves me wondering if it's safe to update. How many of you are running the latest firmware? Does DJI maintain release notes for each firmware release? A Google search is bringing up hit-or-miss results...

Good idea. I didn't realize that they have a live chat service. I did start a thread on the DJI support forum and support was not helpful at all. Hopefully a live chat will solve the problem.

It's been months and I still get the error. How did you solve the error?

Yep, noted. I haven't had a chance yet to find out if that helps out my case. I'll post back here once I have.

Hmmm. You mean you opened one of the previous flights on the controller and then it worked?

I looked at Airdata a while ago, but I was hoping to take advantage of DJI's year in review this year. That's the main reason why I want to sync my records.

Gotcha. I tried hotspotting my phone last week and it's working well. Thanks for the heads up.

Noted, thanks. I didn't understand the part about loading the map on Wifi before a flight to cache the data. It's too bad that the maps aren't as detailed as they were with the Mini 2. With the Mini 2 I relied on detailed maps.

This is the part that was confusing to me when I first got the Mini 3 Pro. I saw the notification that Wifi and Bluetooth were disabled, so I didn't think that I could use my phone to update maps as I fly. Are you saying that I can re-connect to my phone once I'm flying?

I found this video showing that you can connect through a hotspot: . I'll try this tomorrow with my phone. Thank you.

Tether with a cable? Does it work wirelessly too, if I hotspot the phone? I'll have to Google how to download and cache map data to the controller.

I have a lot of hours of Mini 1 and 2 flights under my belt, which I've flown using an iPhone or cell-enabled iPad. With those devices, I grew to rely on the map in the lower left of the app to identify the surroundings. But with the Mini 3 Pro's controller, since it's not a cell-enabled...
