From the time I bought my Mavic 3 Classic unitil a few weeks ago my RC maintained the time in my home timezone.  Twice in the last 3-5weeks it randomly changes itself.  Last week when reviewing photos I noticed the capture times were off.  Going back to previous shoots this occurs about 2 weeks back.  They were off by 23:07hrs.  I reset the time on my RC to the correct time this past friday.  Today (following Friday) while reviewing my photos I noticed the time was off again.  This time its 19:24hrs.  DJI explained to me that when you turn on the Mavic and the RC connects it uploads the time to the drone.   So it appears the issue is starting in the RC.  Anyone else experiecing random time changes?

I have not been in the time settings after resetting until today and I'm the only using the drone.

Hi, DemolitionMan14. Thank you for reaching out. Were you traveling in different time zones when this happened? Do you always connect the DJI RC to the internet?

Traveling between Central US and Eastern US timezones.  Not connected to the internet.  At most time should change 1hr, not 19-23hr.

Some owners of The RC controller had date/time issues around the end of February which were corrected after connecting the controller to wifi.

Thanks for the reply. May we ask what is the current firmware version of the RC?

01.03.0500

I noticed the issue again over the weekend.  The RC was maintaining the correct time the last week and a half.  Saturday morning I was flying all was fine until I swapped a battery.  After the swap I powered back up 20 mins later and the time was -13hrs 24mins.

I noticed a newer firmware for the RC.  Will update and monitor.

Thank you, DemolitionMan14. Please keep us posted once you have installed the new firmware.
