Hi, I'm in Fiji and for about the last week, my Mavic is stuck in Landing Mode.  I take off with GPS signal, and about three seconds later, it goes into landing mode.  I have horizontal control, but difficult to ascend and impossible to fly a normal mission.  I've tried switching back and forth between sport mode and regular, and no difference.  This happened in the middle of a flight before the most recent software update, so I downloaded the update and updated the firmware, and it was temporarily solved for one flight.  On the second flight after the firmware update, the issue happened again and every attempted flight thereafter.  I know it has something to do with GPS because it doesn't happen while flying indoors.  I've checked and there are no TFRs or no-fly zones in my area as far as I can tell, and I'm not getting any messages that I'm in airspace.  This is with full battery on both the mavic and the controller.  I've searched the forum and online and haven't found any similar issues, so I think it must be exclusive to my area.  Any thoughts?  There is one other Mavic owner in the area and he's going to do a test flight today to see if he gets the same issue.

Is there any chance that the RTH button on the RC is stuck?

One quick idea - if all else fails - maybe you could try to disable landing protection in the settings and see if it helps?

Not sure why, but it's working fine now.  Maybe it was the stuck button.
