A compass error may occur when the aircraft is ying close to strong electric magnetic sources (e.g.
power lines and radio base stations). 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 land the aircraft and recalibrate the compass at a different location. Resume ight in a different
area when possible.
• Compass error, exiting 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 ight
controller will automatically adjust the heading of the aircraft to mitigate the drifts. The aircraft will switch
back to P-GPS mode when these adjustments are complete.
