Greetings to all. The new compass gives me a strange behavior. When I point the controller directly at the drone, the signal dot stays blue. For the signal to be correct and to appear green, I have to point the controller to the left of the drone's position. This happens to someone?.
I have tried to calibrate the compass several times and it does the same thing.

Did you calibrate the mobile device or the drone compass??

Calibrate the mobile device / rc to solve this issue.

I have already calibrated the compass several times. I will re-calibrate the dji RC but I doubt it will solve the problem.

Calibrating device should help. It has very little to do with the compass on the craft.

Hi Stephen, I have already solved the problem. Today I got a message to calibrate the DJI RC. After calibrating the controller now the dot turns green right when I point at the drone. The problem that I continue to have, like other users, is that the point sometimes does not appear and reappears without knowing why.

My blue dot disappears all the time too. I found if after every flight if you turn on wifi before you shut controller it helps with next flight. Got mine to work 80% of the time. Sometimes I have to restart controller if it doesn't show up.
