Hello, thanks for your reply. The mini 3 was new. It just came out of the box, I and never flew before. I had to do firmware and fly safe db update before.
There is also a problem that during update you may have a message saying the drone is not moving and being too hot and has to be stopped’
I tried many updates, reinstalled dji fly,
Best reards. D.

The Mini 3 does not have an internal fan to cool the electronics while it is not in flight.  For this reason during firmware updates the Mini 3 may overheat and shut down.  I use a small desk fan directed at the Mini 3 during firmware updates and it hasn't overheated again.  If it overheats and shuts down during firmware update that can cause many issues.

Yes, good idea the fan ...
What I did is I kept it with room under for air circulation, I did one update at a time, starting with a cool drone and a cool battery ...
I was considering that the heat stop could have put the mess, but I could re-update the firmware successfully after (ouf ...)

I work mostly with a Phantom 4 pro that works well, with a Mavic pro as a spare.
I understand your not completely happy with the Mavic3 (?), I'll check that if needed, thanks.

Well, the M3 has gotten better and the GPS issues are gone.   Overall, it's not a bad bird now.

I have precisely the same issue.
It's completely new, and I just received it three days ago.
Followed all essential user guides, updated firmware first, and took my first flawless flight to about 10 minutes in the air.
On the second day, when I tried to fly it again, the drone gave me these errors, and unable to fly:
GPS module not detected, Code: 30098
Sensor error: Code: 30037

I called technical support, and they told me they could not resolve this issue remotely and that it needed physical examination and repair to work.

I'm also pretty sure it's a firmware issue.
There are a lot of advertisements on the Internet, but almost no one mentions this kind of issues on firmware.
It also has issues from a hardware standpoint. Particularly it becomes so host on the ground and empties batter in a steady state within 20-30 minutes.
I now wonder how they send the product with this kind of flow, and it's not under 300$ drone either.
I have been very disappointed with my experience.

Hi all
I had finally a reply from 2 administrators via an other topic message (error code 30064)

They said 30098 issue cannot be solved remotely and that we have to send the drone back ...

I thought it would be faster to send it back to Amazon, but i have to wait for 14 days after it is sent to get my money back ... Even if i buy an other ;-) ...
