"Unable to take control"

Dylan Aslinger
  1. The flight mode is not set to P = yes its set to P
  2. The drone is at or near the max altitude setting in the firmware = not even close 
  3. The drone is at or near the max distance setting in the firmware = not even close
  4. The drone is in or near a no-fly zone that has not been unlocked = checked airspace map and I am in a clear area with no restrictions. How close is too close? 
  5. Multiple flight mode has not been enabled in the firmware = yes and other AI flight apps are working. 
  6. The drone does not have a valid GPS fix, even for a brief period of time = it says GPS is good with multiple sats

Hello, today I purchased the app but have been unable to use any of the on-the-fly features. I can see the FPV feed and launch the drone but as soon as I try to take a 360 photo I get an "unable to take control" error and it never performs an action. Is there something else that needs to be checked? Is there a way to find out why this is failing?

    I drove to a more remote location and tried the app again and everything seemed to work fine. I think its possible that the GPS thought I was in restricted airspace even though my area is not restricted?

    This is very likely.
