Hi DJI,

Why a difference in compass calibration messages in the DLY app ?

If i take my MM more than 50 km away from the last compass calibration ; i have to perform a compass calibration.
But if the date last time performed is > 31 days i only see a message in the app, wich disappears after few seconds....easy to miss.

see the video.



[ additional info ; flight part of testing so i was aware of this ]

cheers
JJB

Hi Stephen,

Thanks, but why not an answer to my question ??

As you can see, Fly app shows a warning to calibrate compass, and it just disappers....

So the app allows me to fly, with a message compass calibartion required.

cheers

Hi JJB*,

a short other question about your pictures:
Why don't you use the Fly App 1.1.8 (seen on the battery indicator, for example)?
