Hello, all.
I've got a question I thought someone may shed some light on, I was doing some testing this afternoon outside my home, and referred to the sat predictor chart beforehand, which indicated roughly (8) Sats available. However, I found I was receiving no less than 11 and at one point (14) from the camera app info., much to my surprise, as I very seldom acquire that many.
When I finished testing I went back & rechecked the web-site and found that the satellites predicted had actually dropped to as little as 6 during this time frame of which again the camera app number never dropped below (8) during this same time period.
Question, can the camera app be unreliable in this regard, which may explain why some have developed issues while flying only to indicate they had a relatively sufficient number of Satellites on there app at the time of the incident.
How heavily should we be relying on the DJI camera App Sat info. in that regard ?, particularly when the app is suggesting a much higher number of satellites than may actually be available at any given time. Thoughts!
