How can I safely operate the aircraft when encountering compass error?
A compass error may occur when the aircraft is flying close to strong electric magnetic sources
(e.g. power transmission lines). The Aircraft Status Indicators will blink red and yellow rapidly
when a compass error occurs and the DJI GO app will display one of the following messages:
- Compass error, calibration required
This warning message indicates the aircraft is receiving abnormal compass readings. It is
recommended that you power off the aircraft and re-calibrate the compass at a different location
and then resume the flight.
- Compass error, exit P-GPS Mode
This warning message indicates that the aircraft is drifting severely. Bring the aircraft to a higher
altitude to acquire connections with enough GPS satellites when this warning message appears.
The flight controller will automatically adjust the orientation of the aircraft in the midair to
mitigate the drifts. The aircraft will switch back to P-GPS mode when the automatic adjustment
is completed
