I made a thread a bit ago about an immediate loss of signal. Since then, the frequency of such things is almost at the point of every single flight. Heck, thinking on it, I think every single flight yesterday had it.
It happens within a few hundred feet. Sometimes it is a couple hundred feet right above me and sometimes it's right in front of me. It goes into RTH and starts returning home. Sometimes it won't regain signal until it's under 100 feet during it's auto land sequence.
I have started using the little foldable parabolic range extenders you put on your antennas and that seemed to help for bit.
Unfortunately the range/signal appears to have gotten worse and the extenders don't prevent it anymore. Although they do help.
I refreshed the remote/drone firmware and relinked the remote. I have tried a new cable to link my ipad to the remote.
Has anyone experienced this?
It seems to me that it's the remote, but I clearly can't test that out without swapping out the remote or the drone.
I have contacted DJI, and they want me to send my drone and remote in. They said it may be covered under warranty, although I bought my drone in Dec. of 2018. I did buy DJI Care Refresh +, and the said if it's not covered under warranty it will definitely be covered under that. However, I don't know if that would use the one exchange I get with that...
I'm tempted to just buy a new remote, as you can get one on eBay for about $200.
