In desperate need of help!

Can't really see in the video, does it have a GPS signal? Looks to me that the problem is in that neighborhood. I flew it indoors yesterday with no GPS signal, the drone can do some unexpected things while hovering then...
 
Bah! My links are all screwy. Not sure why but you'll get the just of it.

For some reason I couldn't put two links in one post? I have gone to 4 different locations including my parents house which is in the middle of nowhere with the same results.
In the video I had 11 satellites when it was doing that.

Okay, first things first. I have done all the obvious steps I can think of. I have re calibrated everything several times. I have gone to 4 different locations, all with the same results.

And..

Hmmm.....: http://youtu.be/wl4rR6mFQtE

I wouldn't expect anything in the way of correct altitude without at least 6 satellites locked in. Mine sits here on the desk and does the same thing.

Sorry, we're posting over each other. In the video where it's in the air I had 11 satellites locked.

Well I think you posted that one, yesterday? I don't have an answer. What does DJI say?

Didn't get any help on the other post. I have contacted DDM where I purchased it from and they are going to get in touch with dji.
Since I've benn having this problem I've noticed the one in the second video with the altitude being screwed up.
At first I thought it might be the app but I had it in the air about 20' and it was reading 73' I hit the failsafe to see if it would climd at all but it didn't. It immediately started to go to its home position at only 20'.

I figured maybe someone here might be able to help a little quicker.

This **** tablet and Tapatalk are really pissing me off! Lol!

You're waiting for the green flashes before takeoff? I assume you are but figured I should ask just in case.

Yes, absolutely. I always wait until I have at least 7 sats locked.

Weird one, if you've ran advanced calibration definitely should call DJI.

Could be a bad barometer.

That's where I'm leaning too. I know they are out of stock at ddm now.

I'm just worried about it falling from the sky now....

Just a thought here. I had a P2V for 2 weeks and traded up to the plus. Weird things were happening with the plus. I had to upgrade the phone app and now all's well. Best of luck.
