The barometer is affected by movement of air around the drone, humidity, temperature changes and even voltage changes. Most of the time if you power back down and start up again it will reset. I suspect it noticed a large change from inside to outside and barked about it. It's good to tell the sensors if it's climbing or defending but not really accurate for a true AGL altitude.
I suspect if you contact dji they will tell you to send it in for them to check.

Just to verify, is the IMU calibration successful? Have you tried to refresh the firmware? Please confirm.

*Solved*

I had the same problem since a couple of days but in my case, I also received a temperature error. I realised that the CPU fan has stopped working. On pressing the top of the drone the fan suddenly started. Again on pressing the sides of the drone the fan stopped. Since I live in India, where we don’t have any service center, I had to fix the problem myself.

So I opened up the drone and noticed that it was an assembly defect where the CPU fan cable was getting pinched under the CPU clamp. Opening up the clamp, and rearranging the pinched wires resolved the issue. DJI needs to take this as a feedback and add this QC to their assembly line.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for sharing this information. This case will be forwarded to our engineers.

Thought it might be something to do with tempature.

Glad you solved the problem and our engineers hope that if you encounter similar problems again, please export the flight data and the black box data instead. We would not recommend you disassemble your spark.
