Hi, I'm getting a compass 1 disconnected warning on the screen , I have recalibrated it and moved location. Drone flys fine. Is this a quick fix?

I guess it depends - is it possible the cable somehow became disconnected at the compass on the leg?

Well if it's fixed it then it may have been a badly calibrated compass, or a glitch in App'.

Compass readings can also be checked by looking at DJI Go 4  'Main Controller Settings' / 'Advanced Settings' / 'Sensors' and then you will see IMU stability, and by tapping on 'Compass' tab the compass stability (green is good, and the smaller the better). If there's a faulty compass it would say there.

Thanks Folks, I am in the compass tab and that is where it says compass 1 disconnected, compass 2 is only a green dot

The green dot indicates that compass 2 is the active device. I would try a firmware refresh and factory reset, see if that makes any difference. Perhaps a re-install of App'. But at this moment it looks as if compass one has gone faulty. Both compass' should be displaying readings, fluctuating slightly.

Has the craft taken a hit of any sort prior to this issue?

Hi,

Same problem here, did you solve it?

Was it a hardware problem? Or did the firmware refresh do the trick?

Compass 1 is located in the left side landing skid..if wires are connected ok then your compass is faulty. your best option is to buy left hand landing gear with compass and wires, this what i did and issue was fixed. Check ebay
