I am traveling and brought my inspire 1Pro with me to get some aerials. However I’m having an issue with the maps loading into the DJI GO app. Apple maps is loading, google maps is loading but DJI GO is stuck in my home location back in the states,what do I have to do so they load into the app? Yes it’s my first time leaving the country with my bird.
I hope I get it solved in the morning, have some interesting locations to visit.

Hi Mixchief, did you enable ''Cache Map in the Background'' in General Settings?
Please zoom out the map in DJI Go to load more locations.
Please let me know if the problem persists and happy holiday.

Yes it’s always selected Mindy, weird thing is that it appears correctly when app first loads in the small map but when I tap to open it reverts to my last location. Litchy however displays correctly. Well I’m flying today regardless but will be a little concerned if the app doesn’t know where it is.

If it's correct when it first loads the smaller map, you then moving around the small map to let it continue to load surrounding areas. Also zoom into it to allow more details to be loaded as well.

I have not been visiting my usual flying spot for over a month. Today, when I flew there, I only had partial map loaded. What I did was disable flight mode and let my android phone connect to the internet. At the same time I switched over to map from the camera mode. I moved around the map to cover a larger area as well as enlarging it for downloading for higher resolution and details. After completion, I turned back on flight mode and flew there for the next 90 minutes. Everything is all ok.

Today I again had no map, probably because I turned iPad off to charge. Unfortunately I have no plan where I am so cell service is not an option. . I went to a park with WiFi iPad did not want to connect.Then right as I was going to fly anyway a park ranger stops and very politely informs me that in order to fly there I need permit from the arts and entertainment bureau. The weather was also turning so I gave up.. a bummer of a day.

You can do the same when at home ie cache the map earlier.
