    Mavic Mini - can'T find GPS (I'm outside !!)

    If you contact DJI, they will probably ask you to download dji assistant software & re flash firmware or update to next version. Not sure about IMU error.

    Look at original RA #. It should have your Mini serial #.. cross check with one you got back.

    MAVIC MINI JUST DROPS ALTITUDE UNCONTROLLABLBY

    I live in the Midwest and it took 19 days to get MM back from trip to California repair center. If you get the report “no problem found” ...ask for another check. My MM is on its way back again with same original issue!

    2nd try with DJI tech support. NO PROBLEM FOUND!

    I sent support a screen shot of this problem, with the help of a mirror placed in front of Mini Mavic showing the landing arrow on & the mini sitting on ground with “in flight” showing. They immediately said to send it in again for repair. I would like to say I had some good flights with the...

    2nd try with DJI tech support. NO PROBLEM FOUND!

    Like others here, I sent my mini (under warranty) in with errors (CPU overheating and power overload). DJI took 3 weeks to get it and send it back with report that they found nothing wrong. Mini still has multiple problems they should have found. It did fly good one time before errors...

    Divorce is inevitable, MM and me

    My 3 week old MM started doing same erratic behavior mentioned here..(errors - power overload & cpu overheating). This was in no wind. MM would fly backwards a few feet on take off, then land on its own with error notice. Be prepared for a “no problem found” diagnostics report. All customer...

    Mavic mini GPS ?

    I would be very careful with inside low light flying and always use the prop guards. I find that my mini will get erratic in low light areas of my home even with some GPS satellites connected. It seemed to do better before the newest firmware update.

    First Mini Flight

    Great advice! I have read everything I can find trying NOT to be a Mavic Mini casualty. So far...over 20 successful flights. But, I know if I hadn’t been following this forum, I would probably made serious mistakes. Your post should help keep all of us new owners out of trouble.
