Hi everyone..
Basically what happened today took me by surprise. I was out in the field, countryside, far away from everything, and a weak gps signal popped up on the screen. I have almost crashed it because it started to drift,,but fortunately managed to land it. The strange thing is that the rc signal was full, 32 satellites, and still no gps,,, actually this was my second flight with the mini 3, ,, the home point wasn't updated so restricted me to fly higher than 30m,,,I have never encountered this on any of my previous dji drones, and I have owned the Mavic 2 pro and air2s,, so no idea what is going on,,,,,my previous drones had 0 gps problems on that exact same spot.

So I think that a drone problem,,hope not.
I'd be curious if somebody else experienced the same issue

Hi, I have the same problem with my new Dji mini 3 pro. RC shows me up to 25 satellites with weak signal and get not a gps fix.
Was it possible for you to fix this problem?
Thanks
