Same issue for me here in Australia.
DJI Mini SE - I've owned it since about June 2022 and I've flown it a total of 122KM without any issues whatsoever.
This morning it prompted me to update the Fly Safe database before take off - I did so, took off, and raised my altitude to 10 metres. I was flying off the side of a mountain so I didn't need to be very high from the take off point, but it's lucky I then didn't lower my altitude, because it absolutely refused to climb any higher than 10 metres of relative altitude during the flight.
If I had lowered my altitude off the mountain, the craft would've been lost and just slammed into the side, or however long until the battery drained and crashed.
I could do all other commands and movements; I could descend, but there was zero response to throttle-up.
After landing successfully, I then tried to re-arm and take off, but then I had the 'firmware incompatible' warning and was not able to take off again.
I took the drone home, checked if there was indeed a firmware update, which there wasn't. It seems to have resolved itself for now, but I am a bit perplexed, since I've flown that same area many times before without this type of behaviour. There was also no altitude warnings, it just refused to climb above 10 metres. When I descended below 10 metres, it then refused to climb past the new lowered height, so I could only go down. I suppose in the future I should make sure to restart after a Fly Safe database update - and if so, there should be a warning on the app to indicate a restart is required. |
