Flight stats reduced by deleting flights

xfirf_ · 2017-12-23

Hi,
I’m a bit confused.

It’s possible to delete flight records afterwards in the App. But when I delete them after I have synced up I would expect that my stats that are shown will stay when I delete some flights to clean up.
But at the moment deleting them reduces the flight-count and also the flown distance.

Is this a bug or a feature?

I would think of it this way:
You install/restore a new app and sync it from the cloud, with what is stored in there.
But after you delete your synced flights on your phone and sync that into the cloud again, then you delete the record in the cloud, of course.

Hm.
I thought the „overall stats“ would not be touched by this as the max flight height has not been set down when I removed the corresponding flight log.
It only affects the overall distance and flightcount.
Edit: The flown meters here in the forum show the real value while the app shows less now.

Yep, I have a little discrepancy between app and forum, too.
I synced a couple of indoor flights, which I deleted afterwards.
Which made me think: As soon you synced it, it is in the DJI cloud forever.
;-)
But it may be only the forums software, which is not reducing your already reported distance

Would be great if it would not be deleted to get a better “over all” view.
