GEO

[Gary cato]

I searched this but did not find much in the way of an answer

i have two drones one is on 0600 when i bought it i turned GEO off and the button is there and its still off and has been through all upgrades and 70 flights

My second Mavic was in Thailand on 0500 GEO off. i did not have a chance to upgrade it while i was there due to lack of a stable internet connection. So when i came back to London i left the London drone there and bought the Thai one home to upgrade here as i have had zero trouble on 0600.

After upgrading i took it out for a test and was getting NFZ warnings everywhere that i was not getting on my other drone on 0600.

i looked for the GEO button but it had disappeared completely

so i had two drones both on 0600 one with a GEO button one without

i downgraded the drone i brought back from 0600 to 0400. Now i get no warnings again but i also do not have the GEO button back either it is gone.

I use the same phone app and DJI assistant on both drones

why do i have one with the GEO feature and one i have no GEO feature? any ideas?

Same phone exactly (ios/android)? I haven't seen the button on android since a couple of app versions.

I read about this in an earlier post, I believe once you turn geo off is disappears and the only way to get it back is uninstall and reinstall the app.

IOS same phone iphone 7 plus.

i only got home yesterday and flew the day before in Thailand and the GEO button was there.

so today updated the Thai drone and it was gone, but i was getting warnings everywhere that i did not get on my london drone on 0600.

oh well 0400 was good firmware anyway lets hope that they dont do a forced update on it and i will happily stay on 0400 for a while.

That would make sense if my other drone had the button disappear too. i might try it though and see if that solves the problem

Thanks bunny

do i want it back mmmmm that is the other question

You might want to read this before it is too late.
We found a way to backup .400 and use it when we want to.

Tired off .500 so I am back on .400
