I'm new at this. I've had my Mavic Pro for about a week...taking short trips. I want to fly longer trips when I get the nerve. Hate to lose my Baby. Question? Shouldn't it have kicked into RTH mode once there was an issue? Thanks.
Coach D, your right it should have, but, because of a recent firmware upgrade the "NFZ" warning would begin with ever DJI GO 4 app restart. On this occasion when the DJI GO 4 app crashed, the restart of the app told the Mavic it was in a "NFZ" zone and to immediately "auto-land" before the systems fully rebooted and it figured out it was safe to fly. Since that firmware, I've received my new Mavic PRO and can confirm that everytime the DJI GO 4 app crashes on my Android,, and it does every flight,,, the restart of the app immediately hooks up to the Mavic PRO at distances of over a mile today with Zero issue. It does begin each DJI GO 4 app with new battery to ground the Mavic for "NFZ" error before all systems boot up and clear it to fly. The important thing is that DJI has apparently de-bugged this either in app or through firmware .700 upgrade. My new Mavic was manufactured on May 11, so, I should have the benefit of several months in hardware improvement and hopefully software will improve in the DJI GO 4 app for Android. I think you will be ok to fly long range but the real peace of mind would probably be best assured if you use a iPhone or iPad. There seem to be no software issues with DJI GO 4 on the Apple iOS. |
