    Air 3 is getting poor signal in CE mode.

    Hi, When flying in an urban area with my DJI Air 3, I don't even get to 1km before the signal starts breaking up. Is there anything I can do to get better range? Thanks.

    Worse signal with DJI Fly 1.6.8

    Today I did a test flight from the rooftop of my apartment, the place I always fly from and test drones for range. I am using the latest DJI Fly 1.6.8 and Mavic Air 2, I'm getting worse range compared to older versions of DJI Fly. Does anyone have the same issues with the new app version?

    Air 2S Video Loss - Can someone look at my flight logs please?

    Hi all, I had a really scary situation where the drone lost it’s video transmission completely. It was out to sea, no obstacles at only 250-300m away from me (but high 120m so couldn’t see it for the sun). Just before it lost signal, it said return to home, but it never did, it just...

    Less than a mile away and while returning to my Home Point at a 2,800 ft away I started to experience Occusync breakup. The video on screen was stalling and delayed. It was well behind the drones actual location. Fortunately, I was pointed in the direction of Home Point already, when I check...

    Mavic Air 2 signal problems.

    Hi, I've been browsing the MavicPilots forum with people having bad signal issues with their Mavic Air 2's just like me. Why is DJI not doing anything about it??? Why are they not releasing a firmware to fix it??? I'm very confused. I thought it was just me, but it's not. Thanks.

    Will AirSence (ADS-B) give you a weak signal?

    Hi, I live in South Africa where we use CE mode. I bought a Mavic Air 2 from Amazon in the USA. The AirSense function is not available on the Fly app. Does this mean that the AirSense is off when it's disabled? Does ADS-B make the Mavic Air 2 signal weaker? Thanks.

    Mavic Air 2 Booster?

    Hi, Is there any way to add parabolic signal boosters to the Mavic Air 2. I'm getting a very weak signal at around 1km (0.62 miles). With my Mavic 2 Zoom, I was getting over 5km (3 miles) with the parabolic boosters in the same area. Thanks for your help.

    Is it safe to use Waypoint 2.0 when you loose signal with your Mavic 2?

    Hi, I want to use Waypoints to set a path where I might lose signal of the drone. I set it to return home once all waypoints are completed. Is there a danger my drone will get lost? Thanks.
