What altitude and distance away from you do you guys find the signal to weak to have smooth rotation control / camera tilting actions on the Mavic air.
Straight up to around 300 ft I get weak signal warnings. At this altitude I can’t really fly away from right above me.

Hi, we're sorry for the inconvenience. I would recommend checking the channel quality under image transmission settings in DJI GO 4. If the quality is poor, replace the flight field. For additional information, ensure that the firmware of your Mavic Air and remote controller are updated then fly the aircraft in without interferences and enough GPS signal. You may also check our video tutorial for remote controller antenna which may help to increase the flight distance.

The gimbal controls will not be affected by the radio transmission signal - just the strength of the live feed. If flying directly over head then follow DJI Tony's video above to show the correct position of the antenna.

Hi, thanks for the prompt reply. The environment or flight field should be considered and prevent interferences from where you fly the drone to avoid possible connection problem.
