Hi Chap couple of things to check use UAV Forecast just to make sure you are not trying to fly near a DJI NFZ no fly zone, also are there any phone masts or radio towers nearby? these can sometime cause issues.
You might also want to go into the setting menu and enable max distance and then try again.
Also confirm that you are using RC controller as the transmitter and not your phone, im not sure if that is even possible but the range of your phones WIFI would be much less than the RC so my thoughts are is it definitely the RC that is synced the MA and not your phone as the controller might just be acting as the controller and your phone is the connection between to the drone. As I said im not sure if the latter is even possible, i would try it myself but I left my MA at work so have got it with me. Maybe someone else could give it a go.
Re-sync the controller and drone again just to be sure. Interference from houses could be an issue but Im in and urban area and have not had any issues, sometimes if you are near a large expanse of water the GPS can suffer from signal bounce but I doubt this is the issue.
A look on the map I think you have quite a few small airfields around you so there may also be quite alot of radio traffic around that said it shouldn't be in the 2.4ghz range .
Best test would be travel out somewhere in the country side and test also its worth maybe getting a cheap spectrum analyser (app) and you should be able to see how much noise is around too and it should give you an idea of what channel (the DJIGO4 app has one these built in as someone has already shown and that will be based on the RC controller ariel's
Good luck and enjoy just remember check around the sky when flying as you are so close to GA airfields never fly above 400ft and if you see any aircraft always descend, (it might be worth getting an air band radio and listening on the local frequencies in the area as this will give you and idea of where they are in the zone and a direction but as long as you say under 400ft it shouldn't be an issue just be aware of your surroundings. UAV Forecast gives wind charts also hand when used on the app |
