Questions & Answers
1

Hello, I sent my Mini 4 pro back for a repair under the care replacement plan and have received the replacement.
However, I cannot calibrate the compass. I have made many attempts in many different locations. I am following the steps, rote the drone Horizontally and then the next step is rotate the drone verticality and every time the calibration fails at this step.
Reported to DJI awaiting response.

Yes can that affect it. Mind you it didn’t affect the old one

Maybe try again with no jewellery on, and no electronic devices in your pockets?

Thanks for the advice.
I took my Apple Watch off and went out into a middle of a field and it has worked.
Don’t ever remember having that trouble with the old one though.
But thank you very much
