Hello I have done all calibrations and set everything up according to instructions. I am set up in a big open parking lot, there are no obstructions or buildings around. When I go to take off it takes off but it won't connect to the satellites. The mini stays in altitude mode and don't connect to any satellites. When I check on UAV forecast says that there are 14 satellites available.  The drone only connects to 5 or 6 satellites.

So I refreshed the Firmware. That never worked then I tried rolling it back to the 400 version firmware and still no difference the most satellites it would connect to today was 5...

Hi there, we are sincerely sorry for the trouble with the Mavic Mini, if the issue happens in every open area, it is recommended to send in the drone to the repair center for the diagnosis, please contact our support team www.dji.com/support for further assistance.
