How do I add my flight distance to my user account? And if its by device, how can i combine the distance from each device?

You can "sync" your flight records from each device ( go to "Me" in the App >Flight Records> upper right corner tap on the cloud and they should start syncing, and they will be tallied all together for your total distance with DJI.
That is if you remember to do it, don't know how many flight logs I have deleted without syncing them because I had an uneventful flight(s). Usually only keep them if something went wrong or had error messages.

Like QuadKid mentioned, if you are using the same account for all your devices, you can sync your flight record and this woks.

That worked....kind of. It shows some distance now but , it shows less then some of my single flights.  I did the sync on device 1 and got around 6000 ft then did the sync on device 2  and it got to were it is now.  I have some flights well over 20,000ft

I could be wrong, but I believe the app records feet and this site shows meters. It's how mine roughly equates anyway.

Yup, when I compare the distance on this forum with the distance on my mobile device, they match if I convert the forum from meters to feet (which is what my mobile device indicates).  Next question, however, is how do I get my 2nd quad to show beneath my name on this forum?  I started with a Phantom 3 Adv but now fly my Mavic Pro almost exclusively.  The icon on the forum, however, still only shows the Phantom.

Did you buy it new? If you did, did you register it under the same account as the Phantom? If you did it should show up.

Are you using the same email across all accounts/devices? I ran into that probably having two emails. Had to synch all into one email account.

Yes, bought new and registered under same account.  In fact, all my Mavic distances show up under my name, but only the Phantom icon shows.  Strange . . .

Yes, same account.  And my Mavic distances show up under my name here, but only the Phantom icon appears.

Yeah that's strange. Maybe mod can assist on this one.

Reminds me of a Mars orbiter some years ago which was lost. The US portion of the team used English 'pounds of thrust' equations in the programming while the international team used metric 'Newtons'... No one caught the issue... oops...
