Hello team, Im Carles, living in Australia and flying my Mavic Air. Yesterday I was flying and all was good. One popup in red just go up in my screen:

·Processor chip critically overheated. The aircraft will power off in 30 seconds.

I get crazy. Lucky me was in the middle of nothing and i didnt have problem to land easy and fast. I read about that issue alot and the best option is to send the drone to check in DJI Support.

my case number: CAS-2661760-S0Q1F4

Yeah sounds serious hopefully you get sorted soon.

Can you tell us what the drone was doing? Fly mode? Camera settings?  Sport mode? Payload? windy? Ambient light? Sensor settings? Anything else?

Take a can of compressed air and blow out the air intakes and outtakes

Agree with the above. I would first see if any of the areas is blocked. Could be the fan not spinning and cooling down the drone. If all else fails, I would then send it in. (that is just me, others might dis agree.....)

The message keep in my drone. I just sended to DJI in Australia and hope is nothing. Thanks for your message guys. I keep updating this post!


No crash, No wind, nothing.

My Mavic did the same thing I just took it back to the store and got a new one from what I understand the fan gets easily clogged with debris and stops working. Was your fan coming on?

Yeah, most likely a bad CPU fan.

I cheked alot of times and didn't come up. Just waiting about DJI Support

Hope they get ya fixed up soon

This is one of the main reasons that I never purchased a Mavic Air. Too many complaints about the cooling fan and overheating chips have scared me away.

Maybe a design flaw but dji should address this weakness as apart from the people who complain about the prop noise this is  a common issue
