Hi
I was about to buy Mavic 3 but have been told by colleague that it is taking around 5mins to lock in to satelites on first start each day, depleting battery by about 5%.
Is this something that is being resolved?  2S does same in about 60secs or less.
Thanks
Rob

The May 31 firmware update finally fixed the Mavic 3 GPS issues and added so much more functionality to the drone especially the telephoto zoom camera.  Take a look at this video for more info on the added functionalities.

Hey rpk, as a fellow Mavic 3 pilot I can say that the gps issue has been resolved and have never had the gps take longer then a minute to get gps lock and in fact it takes less then 40 seconds for me which is really nice!
