Hi all!
I am seeking some help with my mini 2 GPS issues.
How it started:
I tripped and fell on my backpack inside which I had my mini 2 wrapped in my jacket (i know i know).
After quick damage check I was happy to see that only one leg on the bottom cover was slightly bent.
After disassembling bottom cover I've confirmed that nothing was damaged, only a little dent in radiator which is mostly covering USB port at this spot (photos attached).
Aftermatch:
I thought it's not a big deal and I will just replace bottom cover unfortunately after trying to fly, drone reports error 30007 or 30008 and is unable to connect to any satellites (shows 0).
I find it really surprising that GPS module could get damaged somehow when it seems like drone was hit from the bottom.
Everything else seems to be working correctly. Done doesn't report any other issues. I didn't try to fly it without satellites though.
What I have tried so far:
Do You guys have any idea how I can debug this issue or anything else I can try?
I feel like I did all I could before replacing the entire main board and I would love to avoid it especially since it's not guaranteed to be the source of the issue.
Best regards

What I have tried so far:
- changed places to make sure that satellites are available.
- tried again on several other days to make sure.
- bought two used GPS modules from two different sellers who both claim they worked fine - no difference. I guess it is possible that both of them sold me defective modules but its somehow unlikely. And I cant really find any new ones.
- replaced GPS module strip (3 in 1 cable strip) with new 3rd party replacement part - no difference.
- inspected drone and boards for any extra damage but found none.
- unplugged and carefully plugged back in all connections on main board - no difference.
- connected drone to DJI Assistant 2 and "Refreshed" newest firmware - no difference.
- downgraded firmware through DJI Assistant 2 - no difference.
- upgraded to newest firmware again but this time thought android app - no difference.
