What were your winds like? open area? metal structures near by? I've seen this same thing but never entered atti mode. any updates to carry out?

Yes, you can have 9 satellite connections with bad quality so that GPS positionning is not possible.

thank you very much. winds were moderate but i was just in between two high-voltage power lines. That might have been the problem.

Anyone have an idea what would cause a Mavic 200 ft up in the air, above the treetops of suburbia, with 17 satellites, to suddenly go into ATTI mode for 10 seconds or so?

I understand wifi can cause some interference with OcuSync transmissions to and from the controller and probably drone, but having 17 satellites (I average between 13-19 sats for all my flights in the area, 8 or 9 when I take off from next to the house but sonnecting to the other 10 or so upoc clearing rooftop height)... Atti mode shouldn't have happened then, right? Pretty sure. It's on FW 1.03.0200.

(Sometimes the DJI Assistant tells me to upgrade to the same version I'm on, other times it just says "refresh." I've been ignoring it since I updated drone and controller on the 26th and no errors happened at all during or after the update.)
