Does anybody know how the satellite bars 1-5 relate to fight status in the pilot app?Do you only get 'Safe to fly' GPS if you have five full bars?

I'd like to know them all, its for my operations manual.
I can't find this in the DJI documentation only the light status on the aircraft itself.

Many thanks.

Looked myself and couldn't find anything. A lot of users are hoping that next update will give us a satellite count with that very information you asked for. If you do find the answer to your question please post it up. Far to many times a question gets an answer but not posted.

Why cant DJI just put the Sat count back on? Would be so much more valuable to be able to see how many Sats we are receiving before flying...

I had satellite drop outs yesterday for the first time ever. In fact I had about ten on one battery so I can report that when the strength indicator goes down to two bars the green light on the Inspire turns yellow, the GPS signal bars turn yellow and it very gracefully left me in ATTI mode. I did not have any transition time when the craft would not respond to inputs and even though I was flying in very close quarters with a stiff breeze I was happy to fly in this ever changing mode. I watched the Inspire like a hawk however.

Thanks for the responses.
I see that the new Pilot App release has reintroduced a Sat Count.
Does anybody know what the Sat Count would be to get the status 'Safe To Fly (GPS)'.
I won't get chance to use it for a couple of weeks as I'm writing my Ops Manual and this information is required.
DJI feel free to chip in...
