No Satellites ...

[PointJoe]

Today when I turned on my smart controller and air craft, no satellite icons appeared. Tried updating software, restarting, leaving SC on for an hour outside, now recharging. Any suggestions?

We need just a bit more info...

Q: Were you in view of open sky? Just saw your in CA so should be plenty above.
Q: Have you successfully flone from this location before?
Q: Did you test this position, using your phone, or other device, along with a GPS app that shows satellite info (I use 'GPS Status', on android, maybe too old now, had it for along time)

Your issue is very strange, both your SC & your AC not finding any sat locks, unless your in a bad gps coverage area, so thats why Im asking!

Thank you for your interest. Yes to all of your questions. I'm in the backyard which is a golf course. I've flown here hundreds of times on a daily basis. Took a break for a couple of weeks, then ... no satellites.

Worked with Daniel at DJI online. He figured it out. Needed to re-do the link between sc and ac. Then recalibrate compass, of course. All works now (15 satellites). Thanks to those of you who posted your thoughts.
