I have had a Mini2 for a little over a year and never had an issue until recently. All of a sudden the drone is not picking up satellites. It will often take several minutes to find a single one, and it never seem to find more than 8. In the past it would hook onto 20 satellites in less than a minute.

  • I am flying in wide open spaces, and places where I never had issues in the past.
  • The firmware is all up to date
  • The batteries are fully charged
  • It has never experienced any kind of impact or rough handling
  • It has never gotten wet
  • Calibrating the Compass and IMU has had no effect.
  • This is happening in fair weather, and temperatures here are generally between 18 and 33 C at this time of year. So no extremes

Is this a known issue? Has anyone else experienced this? Any fixes?

It is frustrating being able to fly no higher than 3 meters (as happens when you only have 5 satellites).
