Hi Everyone

Not sure if anyone has this problem as well. But everytime I go to calibrate the compass it says failed. Too Much Interference.
Everytime it does that i move away from the area I am to the point where there is not technology or telephone lines or houses and it still happens.
What else can i do to fix this?

Just to verify, is there any impact damage on the drone before? If no, please try to shut down the drone for about 15 minutes, then calibrate the compass once you power on the drone, please note that keep away from the concrete, besides, check if the drone's firmware needs an update.

Take your pants off. Could be your belt buckle.
You should actually check if you have anything metallic on your hands/wrist. There has been known cases of watches such as the Apple watch causing compass calibration failures.
Maybe post up the sensor page in the DJI GO 4 app and check if there is any errors.

And keep the Quad high up when doing the calibration. I raise mine above my head to do the dance.
Once you have a good compass snapshot, then there is no need to do another dance unless the app tells you to.

Just in case it is not obvious, make sure the arms are all extended. You can get interference if the arms are folded.
