    Satellite lock after firmware update

    I would encourage you to chat with DJI and just report your experience as well so that they can fix it. I just did and they said they have not received any other reports of the same issue after firmware update

    Satellite lock after firmware update

    I just went to another location today and waited over 10 minutes while I typed out that last post. Ive flown here before with no issues. granted it was a little cloudy but in that period of time i got 11 satellites but never enough to record a homepoint. So i just gave up. I never flew it. I've...

    Satellite lock after firmware update

    I guess the question is I am still within the return window on Amazon or should I just return it and get a new one if I’m one of the few having this issue Prior to the update though I was extremely impressed with how quickly it locked on the satellites however seems to be terribly slow now...

    Satellite lock after firmware update

    Interesting. I had assumed that this was universal. I saw a few other posts about this on Facebook but nothing here. It’s from my backyard but it’s on a cliff big open area in the hills so satellites should be no problem but more importantly, it acquired satellites remarkably quickly before the...

    Satellite lock after firmware update

    After the firmware update it takes FOREVER to lock on satellites after power up. It’s absurd. Any way to speed this up? I am assuming this is a universal issue? Is DJI aware?

    Mavic 3 3rd party propellers

    Are folks comfortable buying and flying with 3rd party propellers - amazon has various brands that are half the cost for DJI's extra propellers. I used 3rd party on my mavic pro all the time, but since this is so new wondering if anyone has used 3rd party safely

    which microsd reader is most reliable

    Which micro SD reader are you guys using that is most reliable? Ideally one that will directly connect to the iphone/ipad (lightning connector)? Tons of options on amazon, but all of them (including the apple one) have reviews here and there saying it corrupted their files. What have you guys...

    mavic 3 bug - lost live signal after playback

    Thanks. No not running beta, I’m up to date on iOS 15.1.1. Yes, playback (for video) still not working and causing live view to be a grey screen and actually seemingly disconnecting the aircraft. I think based on what you say I will just return it to Amazon and get a replacement since no one...

    mavic 3 bug - lost live signal after playback

    It’s with a iPhone 13 pro max. I did re install and install the app. I’m guessing it’s a universal bug and not just my hardware but wanted to confirm. It’s very reproducible. Either in flight or on the ground, if you go to playback and try to play something on the app it simply doesn’t work...

    mavic 3 bug - lost live signal after playback

    Hi - wondering if you guys could check something for me to see if this is a bug in general or jusut mine. Fly somewhere, record something, then come back close line of sight (5k@50). Then go to playback mode and try to playback the clip. first of all - it never played back. then i tried to get...

    slow motion

    In that case, though - I suppose there is no reason to ever shoot in 4k60, right? when you can shoot in 5k50 instead. and then for slowmo stuff shoot in 4k120. Am I wrong here?

    slow motion

    Thanks. SO I just tried it out and it looks like when I shoot in 120fps, it automatically is in slow motion - the playback plays in slow motion already. so i guess I shouldn't shoot in 120fps always anyway since the files will automatically be slowed.
