Map Mission Maximum Distance Boundary

Joe Brickley

Hello, 

Is there some kind of license limit on a the distance you can run a map mission using an elite license on a DJI Mini  Pro ? I am getting an error along the lines of "Near Distance Boundary" midway through the mission and it reverts to manual control. If I restart the mission I get an error : "Unable to take control {Please make sure the mode switch is set to N ) when the mode switch is set to Normal. This is about 367metres from the controller ( using a bright strobe) .

    The drone has a maximum distance setting in the firmware that can be increased in the settings of DJI Fly.

    Thanks Jim. The DJI Fly limit is set to 500m which is the legal maximum distance in the uk, and I can fly to this using Dronelink in manual mode. When I run a map mission it stops about 370m away from controller.

    The other possibility is that the drone is approaching a no fly zone and the firmware is blocking it entering.
