Drone gone crazy and app crashes
I recently purchased a Starter license and tried the first automatic mission (map and orbit) today, with a Mini 3 Pro. The app is version 5.0.1 (300) | kernel 5.0.0 and the phone is a Google Pixel 6 with which I never had any problems with the Dji Fly app and Litchi Pilot.
Basically, I started the mission and the drone took off and stayed almost a minute hovering, while on the phone the message was “Uploading missions.”
Eventually it took off and got into position. I wanted to pause the mission to adjust the exposure, but as soon as I paused it, I saw that the app started to slow down and was no longer responding to commands. Eventually, I was able to lock the exposure and when I pressed Play again, it went back to “Uploading missions” for a few seconds and then crashed. So I reopened Dronelink, restarted the mission and the drone literally went crazy, spinning on itself and spinning the gimbal.
I had to get it back on the ground with RTH.
What happened? No interference, with Dji Fly I fly with no problems in the same location.
Please help me because I have to do some important photogrammetric surveys next week and I would need Dronelink to work!
Thank you.
Here is the mission:

Seems that other people faced the same.
Sounds like this issue: https://support.dronelink.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/37373648765203
Just this morning I updated the app. Where can I find the beta app suggested in the other thread or is it possible to downgrade the app?
If the beta doesn’t work we can go from there: https://support.dronelink.com/hc/en-us/articles/360033520874-How-do-I-join-and-test-the-Beta-app
Maybe I'd prefer to use the previous version, also because the next week I will be in the field and a stable app could be a better option. Is there a way to downgrade?
To be clear, this latest beta only has one change: a rollback to a previous version of the code, so it’s effectively a previous version. If you and several others confirm that the rollback works, it will become the production version later today.
Ok, I will try again in a few minutes. Thank you
With the beta app it worked really well. I also did the same attempts to pause, change camera settings, play again and it was fine. Thank you!
You mean the one accessible with the link just provided above by Jim ?
Exactly, the on in the link. No problems and no lags.
