Hi pilots,
Today I wanted to go flying, but impossible to have a single sats even after 15 minutes waiting tjrs nothing I gave up so, the UAV Forecast app still tells me 21 locked stats. Do you know what that might be due to? (Same problem with the MM)

Looks like perfect conditions to me!

Hi
Yes, but the MA2 did not pick up any satellite signals..

Try turning off the Mavic Air 2 and pulling the battery out.  Wait about 5 minutes and try again.  It has worked for me in the past.

Thank you so much for the solution, I'll try this tomorrow. But what is strange is that with the mini mavic I have the same problem.

The information about the Mini is very helpful.  

I would fathom based on the commonality of the the problem on both the Mini and Air 2 the issue is the DJI Fly app.  The simplest thing to try is deleting the app and reinstalling it.

DJI recommends this if you are experiencing problems.  Some people on here get really upset and claim it is what they always say and does not work.  But for me it worked when my Air 2 was experimenting transmission issue.

Either UAV forecast is wrong then, there isnt enough sats, or try uninstalling and reinstalling the app (DJI FLY)

Very odd mate! Always best to change location when that happens

It could have been interference, either intentional or accidental.

In the US the military will routinely interfere with the GPS signal for military exercises, testing, and to protect national security assets. The aviation community is warned about those via NOTAMs (Notice To Airmen) detailing the location and duration. I don't know if France has something similar, but it would be worth checking into.

Most like the probvlem is where you fired up the aircraft. Were you inside?

Were you perhaps in an area of high interference?

Hi, VanzPix. We're sorry to read about the difficulties you're experiencing. As already been suggested, it is best to do a quick restart on your Mavic Air 2 and check whether it'll pick up a GPS signal. Should the problem persists, it is ideal to move to a different location.

Very strange if it was in open area...

Thank you all for your answers, I went back to the same place yesterday and everything is good. Probably a bad day

I have found in general that UV Forecast greatly underestimates the number of satellites.  In your case, I agree with others that maybe there was some interference anomaly.
