Hello,  Mt sparks obstacle avoidance system does not appear  to be working.  I have checked the settings and it it toggled on but, when I’m flying I don’t see the radar showing up on the display and it will crash into things if I let it.  I believe I read somewhere that the system is a RF based system.  When I look at the fron of the drone I am able to see a red light type thing flashing. Any ideas of what I need to do to fix this.

Radar arc only shows up when close to an object.  I've never seen a red light for a RF based system.  Make sure you're not in Sport mode...OA doesn't work in Sport mode.

Yup, That's what I also think

Like I said the drone will  crash into a wall if I let it.  I have flown with in a foot or two of a wall while trying to check it. I have made sure I’m not in sport mode.

In my app I can see the distance from a wall or a tree, can you see the distance too?

Gesture mode?  Needs to be in normal mode to bring on the obstacle avoidance

No I don’t see that either

Ai, because when I turn it off, I still get a message with "lookout bro, you're almost smashing me into the wall"

Sorry for you, I advice you to contact DJI to get this inspected.

Could you please provide us with some screenshots of this case for a better checking? Thanks in advance.
