Battery percentage ?

flybigR1 · Sep 2, 2019

Probably a stupid question but I'll ask it anyway . Does the drones battery level effect anything
other than the flight time . The reason I'm asking is because it seem to me I have most of my problems with atti mode kicking in and out toward the end of my flights . Could it effect your GPS strength ? I'm flying a platinum pro since Christmas

No ... you don't get GPS problems or drop into atti mode because of battery levels.

Where do you normally take off from? Have you tried calibrating the compass?

It sounds like something is interfering with the compass

This is half right and half wrong.
If the OP is launching from too close to some steel, the compass will give a warning.
But in that situation, calibrating the compass (which is working perfectly) won't solve the problem the compass is warning about.
The correct action would be to move away from the problem.
