I have noticed yesterday that my flight distance here in the forum is in fact not accurate.  I have flown twice yesterday at well over 5,000 ft a piece and it only added less than 200 ft in my flight distance.  Not a big deal, but why even post them if they are not accurate.   I see a big jump whenever I fly my M2pro, but with the Mini it is not accurate at all and it's not even close.  Stay safe!

Yes I’ve noticed the same, but you may find more points will be added later. But definitely something askew.

Ive seen points being added at a later day, hoping that would be the case.  Stay safe!

Yeah I’m crazy that way, but let’s say your drone crashes then you don’t have the correct data to show your flights and prove to DJI if ever you have to put in for warranty purposes.  My Mini 2 only shows 13 mins of total flight time so far, but yesterday I was up in the air for 17 mins.  So what is up with that? Plus you cannot manually sync your flight data on the Fly App.    This is a big deal if you have searched other forums.

I flew yesterday afternoon and my distance did not update until this morning.  There may be a delay or DJI just does download/uploads at off peak times to reduce server and internet costs.

I know at times there is a delay I'll keep waiting to see if anything changes.   Stay safe!

It can happen in minutes or hours/days - it even took a week to upload once for me. Just wait for it to pop up after syncing and do NOT delete the app until it shows up or you will lose the flight records.

Mine takes a day or so before it updates after I sync my flight logs.

Interesting.  Mine finally showed up a day later, used to be faster than that and I'm ok with that.

You guys with many ,many millions of feet: DJI is penalizing you for having so much distance. It's like saying "Oh yeah, but can you beat that with a handicap?".....  ;-)

Ive seen it mentioned that if you log off and back on it speeds it up.
