Distance error

[elchato2512]

Hello has anyone experienced some distance error?
Today after flying I’ve noticed that the distance get some values from 0 and almost to 4 Mts.
Is in the app and in the control. Distance begins to raise and as you can notice control phone and mavic are in te same place.
Some help would be appreciated
Thanks

That's pretty accurate considering the Mavic uses data from its internal GPS receiver to calculate that distance.

Thanks msinger but it increase and decrease having all near you think 4 mts it’s a reasonable distance.
I’ve never notice this, just looking today and I found for me a huge range. Just asking? Fly very good [emoji1360]

The DJI GO app is only able to show you the distance between the locations coming from the connected satellites. Depending on how many satellites your Mavic is connected to and the amount of obstacles that are blocking the Mavic from seeing the sky, that distance is going to be less or more accurate.

Yeh I got that Saturday, started it up at home and went through my checks and all ok and went to my flying ground took off and got the same thing, so I landed it again, my rc wanted to calibrate so I just followed the instructions and all was ok after that.
