- DJI Mavic Air Range Problem. I get a video transmission issue at around 200m away from the craft.
Updated firmware for craft and RC, Empty field, Clear LOS between me and craft. Tried on 2.4G and 5.8 Bandwidth.

This is why I am returning the Mavic Air. All is good except that it keeps losing signal. Unacceptable. Occusync is a must.
So I just noticed that your antennas are pointed straight out. You HAVE TO aim the flat surface of the antennas towards the drone. They should be in the up position and parallel with one another.
I tried that already, same result.

correct, th-cam.com/video/c3rnyGcg7IM/w-d-xo.html
I had the same issue, sent it back & they sent me a new one that worked perfect !
Its something that they can hopefully fix with next firmware update. I had the same problem with getting greater distances with my mavic air, when i came across some video on tube. The solution is to manually choose channel to operate the craft. Try choosing channel with lowest interference and see the difference. I did 3,2 km on 50 m altitude with no signal loss ( was smooth as butter )
tomislav domjanic, i tried everything i could find online. I ended up just getting a refund. Then i bought thr mavic pro.
Toby Concepcion hows the video transmission of mavic pro? I was considering those 2 drones, ended up to air due to the 100mbs video, rear sensor and newwer tech. But the constantly poor signal lost is a bummer
So did any firmware updates fixed it by now?
@@philippecr it´s long gone! still not super range, but that here would be completely unusable. see here: th-cam.com/video/ru-Ad7RLcZQ/w-d-xo.html
He did choose a manual channel towards the end - channel 3 on 2.4ghz - no better at all
Yep, right out of the box my transmission is broken and slow. My first flight in my neighborhood was a real disappointment. DJI had me update the firmware with DJI Assistant 2, no luck, delete and install app, no luck. Waiting for word from DJI but your guess is as good as mine on when then will respond.
I feel your pain, brother.
Just heard from DJI, sent me a list of questions to fill out to start the return and replacement process. Have you heard anything from them?
No, I have not. Good luck. Please let me know how it goes.
Will do. I bought mine direct from DJI so they have to deal with me. I just sent them a bunch of info to start the replacement process, not sure how long this will all take but I know for sure i won't have next week when I need it for a job.
Early adopter problems.
Had the exact same issues you did so I sent mine back to DJI. Apparently this is a common problem especially with the ones they released in February. DJI ended up replacing the motherboard and two motors, now it seems to work ok. If you are able, I would send it back for warranty repair, but not sure how that would be done in Manila.
Kwun-Phite how far can yours go?
Toby Concepcion about 200 meters as well before I started having the signal interference problem and video cuts. Sometimes it was worse, like when I went to coron. I took off and about 50m vertical and it already started giving me the interference warning and then completely cut the video a min later
How about after they repaired it?
Almost 3 months ago, the seller sent my Mavic Air to their supplier in Manila. Then they told me they sent it to DJI Hongkong for repair (they wouldn't replace defective product). It just got back here. This monday i range tested it with the seller's technician. Nothing changed. Only more than 100 meters. Very disappointing. Now they're telling me they will replace the unit if they get their supplier's approval. Not good business doing.
@@konep I don't think people understand when you buy a mavic air it uses Wi-Fi that's the problem no matter what you do you'll still have the same issues I know I own a lot of DJI drones but the high-end ones the mavic pro and up they use ocusync no issues no lagging no lost signal the mavic air could have been a great drone if DJI would have used ocusync instead of Wi-Fi I took a chance and didn't listen to the reviews regarding the signal issues and bought one had it for 2 days nothing but issues lagging issues and lost signal issues I sent it back yesterday I bought it just the mess around with but I never knew the range was that bad my mavic 2 Zoom it's a great drone no issues not saying I will never have an issue but when you buy a new drone as I did the mavic air and I didn't listen to the reviews I figured it couldn't be that bad how wrong I was
I have a P4P and a Mavic Air. I only use the P4P when the enhanced camera specs are necessary. My Mavic Air did not exhibit the communication problem in your video. The only issue I felt I would have with the Mavic Air was flight time. As most video is shot in short clips, this issue became a non-issue. Replacing batteries between shooting individual clips was no problem. What I like best about the Mavic Air is that it is never even noticed by others. I research ALL flight restrictions and abide by them (including VLOS), but sometimes spectators with drone phobia will make negative comments when I fly my P4P. They never even notice the Mavic Air. With the higher speed processor, it computes x, y, and z positions more frequently than previous drones. In Cinematic Mode is also computers acceleration in each direction to smooth out movement ... hopefully the new Mavic Pro and P4P’s will have that feature. Generally, this little drone is a gem !!!
Yeah. It’s a great drone when it works. Mine just wasn’t that reliable.
Mavic air is the worst drone I ever owned way too many lagging issues among losing signal at close range would not recommend this drone to anyone it does have a great camera and so easy to carry the problem is Wi-Fi if DJI would have used ocusync I would have definitely kept mine for a second drone my first one is the mavic 2 Zoom talk about brilliant technology that's what's in the mavic 2 and of course ocusync2 extremely a very strong signal it puts out so if you're flying in residential areas as I do no issues
Radio signals can be reflected by different objects. This reflected radiation is confusing for Rx units and will cause loss of connection.
I tried flying over the water with little or no objects nearby and got the same problem after 200m.
Same issue as mine. Have connectivity issue beyond 200m. There's so much video lag after 200m that it cause you to render some delayed reaction thus causing some bumps to your piloting. I changed the cable, but the lag still remains. I'm in 5.8 bandwith at that time. I think this M.A. is only designed for selfies.
I had the same issue with my Mavic Air. I Sent my drone into DJI and DJI Engineers have found out that the gimbal module is defective. This module has a video down-link that transmits a signal to the remote controller. Dji replaced the Camera module and now all is well. Contact DJI if you have tried everything else and it didnt work. cheers
Mine won't fly more than around 200m from my house without losing connection. I've tried everything to fix it but still poor so it's going back and I'll get a Pro. It's a real shame as it's a great drone otherwise. There is clearly a hardware issue with some of these.
Top Banana, totally agree with everything you said.
Did you try th gos hack from ce to fcc?
Mine is the same. Just got it last week. Looses connection anywhere from 300-700 ft. Extremely disappointed! DJI offers no help either. My Spark flys farther than this $1000.00 Mavic Air. If you haven’t bought one yet, save your money. 😡
Force hack it to fcc mode with floater app problem gone..
I can’t get past 12,000 feet, help.
Same problem here, I have lag with a diference of about 3 seconds, even if I have the drone for about a meter from the controller, this starts happening today and I was flying at 50 meters...
Omg. Same problem here. At 1st i notice losing video connection around 200m then 300m loosing conncetion. By with my p3pro. 500m no loose connetions or bimp videos. DJI pls fix this problem to us. I love the feature of this drone. But range is our problem
Set it to 2.4ghz to make it better.
I’m having the same issues with mine and to be honest I’m really close to selling the drone and going back to my Mavic Pro. Lemme know if you find a fix!
Will do!
same
You have to point the entenas straight up, put it in 5.8 gigahertz if flying in a high interference area, and check if you are in FCC mode
Even though I think the mavic air has a bit better camera than the pro (and other features) this is the exact reason why I bought the pro over the air. I can get the same great footage as the air using good ND filters. I got the pro for $765 at best buy 3 weeks ago, which was still cheaper than the air but that wasn't the main reason for my choice. I had the spark as my first drone and got so sick and tired of the lag and total disconnect from 400m away that I never flew it. I had to go with OcuSync this time and it's a night and day difference. I really was wishing the air came with OcuSync even if my distant limit was a mile as I don't go much further than 1000m-1200m anyway. I really wanted to put my money toward the air for a number of reasons but I'm glad I didn't as I pay less attention to how far I'm flying and more on filming as I know I'll have that stable connection. Also, I'm always getting 1080p feed back from the Drone to my phone/iPad so I can actually see what I'm looking at and get a better feel for how I want my footage to look in post. I know the air can get a good mile+ or so and in some cases surpass the range limit but knowing my luck I would of ended up in your position. Also the flight time on the pro is remarkable.. I know you can get more batteries but that extra 5 minutes staying up in the air makes a big difference in certain instances. As long as I'm close by I get 22 minutes of recording and have about 10% percent battery left when I land. I hope you get this thing figured out, whether that's through fw or dji fixing a hardware issue on yours because these mavic air's are slick and aren't cheap.. Best of luck!
I can't get more the 50 ft away or in the air before I lose connection....but the first time I flew it went all the way to a mile..... wtf
Aside from signal interference, I believe this is also an interference issue caused by the poor quality of the DJI slim RC wires connection from phone to the RC. I bought a 6 inch lightning cable and connected it to the usb on the RC and it worked like a charm. Try it with your lightning cable to test it out. Let me know if it works
Tried using my official lightning cable. It didn't fix the issue. Thanks though.
Toby Concepcion el dice que el cable original es el que causa el problema, yo tenia el mismo y compre un OTG y ahora llego a 4 klmts, hice pruebas y definitivamente es el cable del mavic el problema, te recomiendo comprar uno de muy buena calidad
it is sad, i sold my Mavic Pro thinking that the Air could be a better option, and I´m totally disappointed.
Man, that sucks. What’s wrong with your air? Same problem?
Toby Concepcion yes Bro same fucking problem ! I use The air to film surf vídeos and and some interfence and signal problems
Toby Concepcion we all must write a letter to DJI and be unite
Yeah. The first time I flew the Air I was at a beach with no radio towers or metal nearby and i still got signal problems. I knew right there that something was up.
i want to buy mavic air over pro just for the sake of boomerang mode. what do you suggest?
Set it to 2.4ghz first
First off 5.8g is for areas that that have a lot of clutter around like buildings n houses...it’s shorter range...I never use 5.8 unless I’m exploring buildings..I always use 2.4g...n I get at least 2,500 meters...which is 1 1/2 miles...before I get break up...so idk...what the issue is...u should be getting...at least mile and a half...
Final Update: After weeks and weeks of troubleshooting, I ended up getting just a refund for my drone from my local dealer even though they had no return policy. At first they kept insisting that I send the drone to DJI, so i had to complain to the local Department of Trade and Industry. Eventually the dealer gave in and allowed me to get a refund. This was because my issue was between me and the local dealer, not me, DJI and the dealer. The dealer was obligated to give me a proper product from the start. If you recently purchased a defective product you have the right to return, repair or, in my case, refund. Make sure to check your local regulations regarding this. It doesn't matter if you bought it from a brick and mortar store or from some random guy on ebay. There are laws in place that protect us consumers from defective products. Just like we're supposed to read up on drone regulations, make sure you know your consumer rights as well! If you guys want to know more on how I managed to get a refund despite the local dealer not having a return policy, I could make a video on it if you're interested.
Thanks for the update. Could you please make a video about how you did get the refund despite the local dealer dit not have a return policy?
I might have to do the same... same problem here...:/
Johnny D sure. I'll work on it
I'm interested! Please! That's exactly my trouble now. My Mavic Air in the farm only flew over 500 meters. In the city only over 100 meters. Two months ago i asked the seller for a replacement. They only sent the product to their supplier in Manila and told me the product was sent to DJI in China or Hongkong. Got the product back on monday, range tested it with the seller's technician, still we only reached over 100 meters. Seller still won't replace the product without their supplier's approval. Your help will be greatly appreciated, Mr. Toby.
That's why I buy from Amazon the return policy is great I had mine for 2 days nothing but issues I'm glad you got a refund as I did but without the work that you had to do to get it
this happen to me today and the drone was right infront of me and then it disconnected.. i was next to a busy road with cars would that be the issue ? but yes my video was very choppy but the drone was 1m away from me....
My drone is fine at close range (under 100 meters). You can try connecting with DJI assistant 2 and downgrading/upgrading their FW solved the problem. Also try a factory reset via DJI assistant if that doesnt work. This did not work for me though.
Im experiencing the same issue. Have been in contact with DJI Support. After making sure the firmware is up to date they want me to send the drone and controller in for a repair. It’s about two months old and have had this issue all the time. I’m waiting for a package return label at the moment.
Kristoffer Linus Lauritzen, I am disappointed with the way DJI is handling this. When did you buy your mavic air?
Toby Concepcion, I bought it two months ago. I received my packing slip yesterday about 24 hours after making the repair request.
Kristoffer Linus Lauritzen, good luck! Please keep me posted.
Why do you have 14 subscribers ? I am subscribing , this a good test
May I ask you whether you found a solution to overcome this problem? After heavy research I came to the conclusion that the main board where the Wifi component sits has to be replaced. Ist that something you can confirm?
Thank you for your feedback!
Mavic Pros have major gimbal issues and Airs have major signal issues. When will these Chinese people realize that quality is a serious consideration here in the US?
if you see the wi-fi strength indicator on the upper right-hand side corner indicating only one bar. This is also happen to my MA. It's like constantly showing one or two bar only.. even if I fly in open space without near any interferance from cellular tower or power lines and with correct antenna positioning to the aircraft direction. What happen with this MA? the w-fi, is that really dissapointing?? *sight
I got same issue before I stumbled upon a forum that discusses the effect of carbon-fiber propellers on signal strength. I then used the original propeller that came with the drone and now works fine. Are you using a carbon-fiber propeller in this flight?
I am using the same default propellers that came with my mavic air, they're not carbon fiber tho are they? I still have this heinous problem
I purchased mine directly from DJI it is past the 14 day return window but I have never crashed and only flown about 8 times. I have this exact same problem is there anyway to get a replacement or refund?
So you ordered it online?
I have the same problem, could you fix this?
I have the same exact issue. I was in Bagan, a remote area, there’s no way it would get any kind of interference but I couldn’t go farther than 200m. Updating FW didn’t help at all. Please let me know if there’s a fix for this. My first ever drone and I’m very disappointed. Angry at DJi right now.
Are you opening up the small bottom antennas on your drone?
Switch from CE to FCC mode. And the range will change from 200m to 4000+ or even 5000m+ (in open area).
Any upadate from dji with this issue?
Nope. They're on Chinese New Year Holiday until the 22nd.
Something else is wrong I went out with trees and other objects in my way to 1108 meters but another time I was only 350meters but my UAV was higher and deep in trees
In my case i can fly it in the city up to 1km no problem. Outside the city 2km. Cheers
same thing happening to me. i'll keep looking for a solution, lmk if you find one. im more SOL than you however, since i bought mine off ebay. it's brand new though so it should be covered under warranty, i also bought the care refresh package. still, i have a feeling it will be a headache to deal through the warranty so i'll try everything else first.
Blaugrana I’ll defiantly keep everyone here updated. Good luck looking for a solution and if worse comes to worse I hope you have a better time dealing with DJI support than I had. It takes them ages to respond.
mavic pro...ocusync = solution
Update: I updated my DJI go 4 app to 4.2.6. Minor improvement for the video transmission signal at close range BUT signal STILL gets choppy after 200-300m.
hai aggiornato il radiocomando?hai rifatto il collegamento col cellulare?
Sto usando google traduttore spero che funzioni.
Sì, ho aggiornato la mia radio. Non sono sicuro di cosa intendi per avere una connessione con il cellulare. il telefono è collegato alla mia radio. Non ho provato a collegare il mio telefono al drone.
ogni volta che aggiorni devi rifare la connessione tra drone e radiocomando(scusa ma non so l'inglese...)
Sì. Ho ricollegato il drone e la radio dopo l'aggiornamento. Non preoccuparti di non parlare inglese. Google translate è qui per aiutarmi. Apprezzo che tu abbia cercato di aiutarmi nonostante la barriera linguistica. Grazie mille!
per rifare il collegamento hai premuto il tasto dietro al drone per due secondi?
Wonder if switching from CE to FCC improvement the video transmission.
It will have a lot of difference because 5.8G is very weak at CE with a range of 500.But the 2.4G is musc more reliable in CE with a range of 2km
This is nothing. DJI drones and their apps have several issues. The App which they give you is guaranteed to not run completely on all phones. Meaning if there were 50 features that you can use on the DJI app, only a select approximately 35 features would work on that phone. Then you try a different phone and totally different random set of 35 features will work. Of-course the actual numbers etc are just an analogy for you to understand. Then you will frantically buy a DJI approved phone (they have a list on their spec page for each drone) and guess what, still about 10 features dont work on that phone. This happened to me.
That too the main offline maps wont load and even DJI doesn't know why. Suckers convinced me to buy a new phone claiming that all features would only work on their approved phones. Now its a waste. I have to fly in the blind, not knowing where its flying and having no visual map of the drone location. Apart from this video feed is extremely choppy and pixelated with huge graphic map like patch artifacts wiping across the screen every 20 seconds and with the drone just 200m away. All this with their approved brand new phone, exclusively bought for flying my Mavic AIR. Now when i ask them whats going on ? no response, ignored.
Hey everyone I was having the same problem. I FIXXED IT!!! I reformatted my SD card and it works now....Hope this works for everyone else. Good Luck
Rob28454 so now we have to fly without a SD card 👎🏻, very disappointing
i flew mine without sd card, using internal storage and the problem persists ://
MINE SO FERPECT NO PROBLEM AT ALL FLY SO SMOOTH
i found your problem, min: 2:17, the antennas are giving you all the interference
You're not in auto mode for the wifi signal right?
At first I was then I switched it to manual at 8:15
I'm surprised it started with the 5.8ghz.
at 2:22 - 2:44 you see the cell tower, this tower is not limited to data/voice panels, there are other transmitters on it, hence all the interference. - you were asked about it below, you omitted that information, in your shot you kept trying to avoid having it in frame... that's what we call trolling a product.
I have tried flying in different and some remote areas with little to no cell towers. I kept getting the same results. Call it what you will.
Toby Concepcion , I have had some difficulties with mine however, doing a firmware reset and using a spare s7 and having all networks including WiFi turned off (important), I have maxed out the distance.
Unfortunately I didn’t have a compatible android phone. I couldn’t switch to FCC mode because there are no IP spoofers for iPhone. I switched off WiFi and Bluetooth on following test flights which is what DJI suggested me to do. I only had minimal improvement. I ended up returning the Mavic Air. I did buy a Mavic pro and now I’m happy with it. It does what I expected the air to do.
Toby Concepcion that's awesome, congratulations.
What was the issue?
Youre in ce mode hope you try fcc mode..1-11 channel means fcc mode and 1-13 channels means ce mode
In Europe at least 5ghz only gets you about 500m according to the spec
at around 8:14 I switch to 2.4ghz
Yup I saw that, on 2.4Ghz myself I get around 1-1.5km before signal completely breaks up, so 2.4 is subject to much more interference. Try perhaps another area or if you can get your hands on an android device, perhaps the fakegps forcefcc trick?
man i'm having the same problem too ,
Bad luck, man.
yeah , i can only fly about 100-200 m before i begin to get issues, tried all the common fixes but nothing helps.
BTW ... was that a small craft airport across the highway?
Russell Schundler that’s a newly zoned residential area.
Update: DJI told me to wait a bit longer due to a backlog of complaints during the Chinese New Year.
Toby Concepcion bro did you try to roll back the fw to the old version and test to fly? my friend doesnt have that issue, he haven't update the fw of his MA.
I tried looking for it in the DJI assistant app. I only see the current firmware version. How do I roll it back?
Toby Concepcion on your dji assistant from desktop/mac on software/fw update there is the current and the old one just flash the old firmware.
There is a downgrade box for older fw flash it. Similar to like this www.dronerush.com/update-dji-spark-update-dji-mavic-pro-10023/
www.dropbox.com/s/igx7s1rhwjbgj4g/FirmwarePage.png?dl=0
I cant find the old one
Ture problem. Very unstable and poor signal system
have you tried experimenting elsewhere?
TheJigFreak yes at two different remote beaches. I tried flying straight out into the water.
how was the range at the beaches? improved or same?
Same
so it is manufacturer's fault i guess... what will be your next step?
TheJigFreak, I returned it. Got a mavic pro. No issues with it.
Have you resolved the range problem? I need some help too. My Mavic Air only flew more than 500 meters in the farm. In the city only over 100 meters. DJI's claim with Mavic Air is 4 kilometers. Is this a defective product? Is the seller supposed to replace this?
I returned my unit since it was defective.
@@benlopcon , what was your process of having it refunded? I'd like to follow you.
@@commandernoodles2367 please check my comment updates. Unless you live in the Philippines i doubt our process will be the same.
@@benlopcon , did you consult your lawyer first or you went straight to DTI? I've read all the threads in your video. I'd appreciate more clarity. Thanks, man...
@@benlopcon , i had my Mavic Air refunded yesterday too!
Ganyan din ang nangyayari sa akin, pero nalaman ko na nasa NO FLY ZONE ako. Nasa no fly zone ka kasi kuya kaya palaging may interference. May app po na pwedeng madownload para alam kung saan pwedeng magpalipad.
Sa farm ko walang no-fly-zone. Hanggang 500 meters lang ako doon. Tama yong refund na decision.
Update: After troubleshooting with DJI for almost a month, DJI wants me to send the drone to them in China so they could have a look at it. I paid for a product expecting it to work properly out of the box. Instead, I received a very expensive paper-weight. So they want me to send a factory defective product, which I bought from them, to China. To make matters worse they want me to pay for shipping to China. It’s been almost a month and I have yet to properly use the product I bought. Make sure you have airtight warranty with your DJI dealer if you're considering this drone.
Toby Concepcion hi did you try that remote controller linking..that has to be done where mavic air should be in gps..i mean outside..its working for me..i have replied in previous comment also..plz try..
fyi : one more thing..try to link rc to ac again..not in main screen of djigo...once connected go inside the app in controller settings at the bottom there is remote linking..click it...it will say confirm frequency..press ok..... then.....press and hold Ac function button...lets see...hope it helps..
I will try this tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up! I really appreciate your help.
Yes i always re-link RC with Drone before i fly. Just in case that works.
I have manage to receive my MA from dji tested out it was ok no more lag or aircraft disconnect, the only issue is they have replaced a refurbish one :( i bought the drone before just for two weeks, it is a brand new. I think its not fair what you have paid for a new one then replacement was a refurbish one.. :(
kabayan problem ko rin yan s mavic air ko. is there any solution to fix that problem?
2.4ghz transmission setting instead of 5ghz
Not happy with the Airs WiFi at all, seems worse than the spark
Seems like a hit or miss thing. Some people appear to have no problems
any solution ? please help me Toby!
I ended up returning the unit and I just got the magic pro.
@@benlopcon this is insane.
I have same experience with image transmission lag. I thought it was because i flew in city that maybe alot of other signal interference (i.e : cellular tower,radio tower etc) ?
Denny W I tired flying at a rural beach town yesterday. Same problem.
I tried to use FCC mode, but not yet tested. hopefully it could help to get better signal reception while flying around high interference area.
please let me know how this goes.
I have tried FCC mode this morning, and the result is amazing, you can feel the difference. I live at urban area, surrounding with tall building, and near our home there is a cellular transmitter tower (50mtr high).
Using CE Mode, the warning of High inference has pop up since take off . surprisingly, in FCC mode, the warning didn't pop-up and i can flew 268m from homepoint before it lost signal and intiate RTH
Denny W how far did you fly?
I have a video on my channel showing basically the same thing.
you are in 5.8mhz try switching to 2.4 and give it a go.
dale brown at 8:01 I switch to 2.4
I have one to, it has the worst range out off all dji drones, 20 meters straight up in bangkok and i loose signal.
Its a piece off shit drone and wish i never bought it, the spark has much better range.
mitch koerse I agree my spark had better range and connection wish I never got rid of it for the air
alam mong nasa pinas ka wifi kapa... best tlga lightbridge connection ng phantom.. anywhere
I'm curious to know if you got this resolved and how
I contacted DJI, they asked me to try a few things. Nothing resolved the issue. Waiting on DJI to let me know the next steps but I believe they are on Chinese New Year Holiday so I might not hear from them until Feb 22. I also tried returning my Unit to the store I bought it from. They told me to wait for what DJI to say I have a defective unit before they can take it back.
I'm having a similar problem with my Mavic Air at the moment... video gets choppy at about 150m. .. even my Spark has more consistent image...
Please post up solution if DJI gives you one!
Thanks!
I'll definitely do. I suggest you contact DJI or straight up have your unit replaced if you can.
I pre-ordered from DJI... their customer service is ok but I doubt they will be willing to replace the unit.
I've heard some pretty annoying stuff from DJI customer service as a consumer..
risolto con l'aggiornamento del telefono 4.2.6 dji app
Just switch from 5.8 to 2.4 ghz transmition and you can have more range :) It’s simple.
No matter what you do it's going to lag because it's using Wi-Fi and not ocusync
Just bought the Air, coming from a crashed Pro. Terribly dissapointing, too much lag at 300ft for an $800 drone ($920 for the Fly More + tax).
Bummer. Not a very good range! !!!
Here's the way to fix the mavic air where you will have no more lagging or lost connection send it back Wi-Fi sucks
just checking but how are you pointing the antennas? watch this to know how to point the antenna. th-cam.com/video/c3rnyGcg7IM/w-d-xo.html
also change it to channel 149 or higher making it 5.8ghz
It’s gotta be faulty...bro!
Yup. I ended up returning it.
I have this problem too
risolto con l'aggiornamento del telefono 4.2.6 dji app
Grazie - lo sai che è vero?
Hai un link al sito web da farmi vedere?
Io ho il mavic air e avevo questo problema!! Ho aggiornato app iOS 4.2.6 e funziona bene...
Perfetto :) Speriamo che funzioni anche per i telefoni Android.
Grazie ancora!
@@bj5563 ciao caro.
Io vorrei prendere il mavic air... ma sto leggendo di tutte queste perdite di segnale ....ma tu hai risolto?
Grazie mille
@@giuliopi4720 Ciao, non vorrei comprare un altro Mavic Air. L'ho usato a Positano l'anno scorso e ho perso la trasmissione del segnale / immagine sull'acqua - solo a una distanza inferiore a 100 metri!
I had the same problem. I was so sad because 50-60 meter high in air signal problem. 600-700 meter signal problem. I Write shop them give me nothing. BUT. I find out of It. First I take from 5.8Ghz to 2.4Ghz. I got now over 1 kilometer range. It help me. I live In Europa we have CE settings max 2 kilometer range. But some easy steps and my Mavic Air Is now In FC mode 4 kilometer range. 2.4Ghz and FC Mode. My Mavic Air is a Complete New drone. Some days ago I fly 2 kilometer and 12 meter before I turn around and fly home. I had signal so I could fly mutch longer. Home 4 kilometer and 42 meter. I have video on my chanal. This easy steps help me mutch. I also have Dji Inspire 1 V2.0. but I fly longer With my Mavic Air. Fantastic littel drone.
we must let DJI know that Mavic Air SUCKS!
They had a good idea with the drone. If its video transmitter was as good as the pro’s, it would have been the perfect travel drone.
Toby Concepcion The thing is i use The drone a Lot for my Productions i was happy with the Pro. I friend of mine convence me to Buy The Air ! I think i’m Gonna hit him on The face hahahaha
Haha! Yeah. The air is definitely NOT for professional use. Good luck trying to manually orbit around an object, you'll get stuttering video all day.
Fcc mode is the ticket!!
How much range do you get with FCC?
Double than CE, more or less and better signal with 5,8 Ghz too.
Whats Fcc Mode Antonio?
All the signal power Brian.
