I had the same problem after the last updates. Connect, disconnect and other warnings.
I made the same basic flight 4x and recorded it. Exact path. One time magnetic warnings, then GPS, then compass, then disconnects. Next flght similar, not in the same order or even from the same location. I tracked a course basically of a short flight of 300m and back.
I showed this to a local DJI store rep who saw my posts on FB. At first he was puzzled and then came to the conclusion (since results were varied) that the AC, RC should just be paired again. Restart the phone and try again. After the phone restart, I again paired the RC and AC. I took that same exact route behind my house. All VLOS and was happy to report to him I had no errors. Rained out today so I can't test it.
I can't say for certain that solved all issues. I don't fly more than VLOS and have no desire to fly a mile out where I cannot see the AC. It's one of those just because you can does not mean you should things for me anyway. I'm just feeling a bit better that compass, GPS and disconnects are no longer happening when the AC was only 30' from me.
I watch other user videos and one thing I learned is they do not freak out when these problems occur, but many that report these problems do..and then lose the AC. The product is supposed to have it's own fail safes, and the errors are merely prompts and most are temporary while in flight. Even if you lose all RC it should RTH as long as the point was set initially. Worst case is ATTI mode, but again that's why having visual sight of teh AC is so important. If you fly along a long trek testing these limits, have spotters with cell phones.
