A while ago, maybe 2 weeks back, i updated to the latest firmware v01.03.0200. Updated via iOS so everything got updated nice and fine (remote, mavic, battery etc.). Except for the video quality (that seems to get worse with every update) everying went fine till this update, no erratic behaviour, no unexpected beeps, warnings or other major flight related issues.
Finally i get the time to test the new firmware and try out the new cinematic mode. I find a beautiful spot and prepare to fly, calibrate everything, do my preflight checklist, got enough satellites for safe flight, everyhing seems fine.
I try to fly and instead of taking off and hovering in place the mavic jets up into the sky, look at the control screen and i see that RTH activated automatically, fearing the worse i pull down on the throttle and catch the mavic mid-flight before it can do any other shenanigans.
To weed out any pilot errors i check everything carefully allover again. Check all buttons on the remote, all click fine, nothing jammed anywhere, check the propellars, check the motors, gimbal etc. I move away to a diferent location and make sure that radio interference is low and my phone is off. I try again, same story.
To make a long story short, i downgraded to v01.03.0000 via the desktop assistant software but the problem persists. One thing that i've discovered while troubleshooting is that while using the flight simulator software the virtual drone behaves the same as the real one, same problem, so i am suspecting that there is an issue with the remote control. Also, did some tests indoors, and when i activate the motors they idle for 2 or 3 seconds and then they cut off automatically, same behaviour is mirrored on the flight simulator as well.
Anyone else experiencing this issue? Any advice would be greatly welcomed.
