- Which one is the REAL SIGNAL LOST? Best way to identify it without DJI FLY APP.
Another hot and common topic that was widely happened, or reported in social media/forum, that often found out to be NOT the expected SIGNAL LOST, and some lead to lost of aircraft due to incorrect decision making.
It is important to understand almost every aspect of the aircraft operation to avoid unfortunate incidents.
In this video I explained in detail what both of this warning actually meant,
RC NOT CONNECTED TO MOBILE DEVICE
AIRCRAFT NOT CONNECTED TO RC
including what happen and some idea on what to do during the time it happened.
I also add in another alternative way to identify both of it, even without the need of using mobile device and DJI Fly App, after a recent survey found out that there are still operators who do not know the 'alternative way' to distinguish between actual signal lost, or not an actual signal lost.
This video can also be a guide to determine if you have connection issue or weak signal between Aircraft and Remote Control, or Remote Control with the Mobile Device.
I hope this video can really help to minimize unfortunate incident.

Now after over 12 month of watching tons and tons of Mavic Mini vids, you just popped up... Glad you did!!!
Subscribed right away.
Thanks for your support!
Honestly mate your drone tutorials are the best on youtube and editing is ace aswell 👍👍👍🇬🇧🏴
Thanks alot mate ❤️
Greetings! Thats it has been the best tutorial regarding "Signal Lost". It's a most to share with friends. Thank you for taking the time to explain each situation regrading "Signal Lost".
Thanks I hope it helps.
Learned 3 things from this video. Difference between lost Connection to phone and RC, the 11 sec auto RTH and the RC blinking lights. If its intermitent, I think I can switch off the RC manually so it would trigger the 11 sec auto RTH. After a few sec, turn on the RC again so it can reconnect back with the drone, by then the drone would already be closer and has a better chance to reconnect since its already on RTH.
I am glad that you've learned from this video, thanks for watching. As for intermittent, there are alot of ways to solve that, one is as per what you've said. Others can be, engage opposite stick direction while readjusting the antenna direction and angle (kind of complicated), or easier is to point the antenna to a total different direction so the weak signal will immediately become no signal but make sure to do it for more than 11secs. ☺️
Well done! The first 45 seconds were hilarious! The rest of the video was very well organized and well explained. Thanks for sharing this info.
Thank You! I appreciate how well you explain with visuals and some humor.
Brilliant video, illustrations and content, perhaps the best out there!
Thank you so much..very helpful..what is the solutions of lose signal
Cool bro...
I've not yet had a problem with losing connection at all, not with my Mavic Mini nor my Mini 2.
I fly them every day and use the latest Fly App and firmware and all is good for me...
Knock on wood, I hope it stays this way..
🇧🇬🛸😁
Good to hear that! Really hope it stay that way, but either way, u should have known what to do by now if u came across such situation ☺️
Good content mate, keep it up 👌👊
Nice tips mate. Very informative. You've got yourself a new subscriber. Greetings from the Philippines.
Salamat po!
Beautiful editing and great information !!!
Thanks hope it helps
That was a very informative video. Thank you for taking the time to put it together.
You're most welcome
Thanks for sharing this🍺I experienced it many times and had panic😃 Now i know what to do. It’s Sam from the Philippines👍🏻
Great information, Thanks
Very helpful with beneficial visuals. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Remember when you lose FPV connection, you still have RC control ie stick inputs will still control the drone but you will not be able to see the movements on the FPV !!
After around 11 secs of no FPV signal it should auto RTH, providing the RTH settings are correct! 😎👍
what does small icon and tablet mean on iphone DJI app screen, i cant get connection?
Awesome stuff!! Now I understand what happened, luckily, I was able to fly the drone back visually.
Outstanding, as expected... Very well explained !
Where are you located ? Looks nice....
Thanks! I am from Malaysia. Some of the footage in the video was taken in Thailand last year.
Nice tips my friend!
Congratulations from Brasil 🇧🇷
Thanks my friend for your continous support
Very thorough, entertaining and we'll edited. Nice work! New Subscriber
Thanks for your compliment!
Wow I've watched many videos on the Mini MA2 and Mini 2 but this was very original and well done 👍
Very good information, thank you. Like # 350!!!!
thanks for this very useful info 👍👍
Thank you hope it helps
it is. u deserve more subs from drone community. looking forward for more videos about tech support on mavic
Great video. Very informative and good humor. Thanks for the explanation, didn't realize the different message meanings. Hopefully wont happen too often, but your information might be the difference between getting drone back and not. Thanks again
I have drone since 2017. But already know about this. Thank you very much👍.
Yeah good to hear that. But seems like no one is talking about it in a focus topic so I thought do cover it to help others who didn't know about it...
Thank you mate 👍👍👍
You're most welcome mate ☺️
I was just going to buy the Mini 2 on Tuesday, I've read to many connections lost, I think I will keep my 550 beans.
Reason. No connection ur prob not in line of rc waves sent to drone
Thanks, man. very helpful
Wow, great job, I bookmarked this informative video!!
Im having some issues with dji mini 2 5.8ghz is not even working i need to put my rc on the drone so it works, dual band it looses connection. only 2.4 is working
Apparently ive heard quite a number of ppls reporting the same issue. Not sure whats going on. Some managed to get warranty claim from it
Love your video and content 👍
Thanks for your compliment
I put my Mini 2 into return to home....only thing is it flew back to China 😂
Hahaha that will break the 'range test' record 😂😂😂
So helpful, thank you!
Thanks. But what happens if the rc shuts down ex due to battery running out?
No RC = signal lost.
Terima kasih, tips yang amat berguna.
Terima kasih bro
Very good video - but do you know how to find a drone when it hasn't enough battery power left to activate the light and sound signal ? I know where my drone is (I have the coordinates) but when I am at the exact spot, no drone at all!!!
Hi sorry for the late reply. The only option is through Find my Drone and provided you've analysis all possibilities otherwise the GPS coordinates recorded in the find my drone only shown the last contact between the Remote and Aircraft. So if the aircraft initiate failsafe RTH and no contact with the remote during that period, the GPS coordinates will not be useful anymore.
Just lost connection flying around my yard. It “returned to home” right to the top of a tree. So mad to sit there and watch it and not have any ability to control it.
Amazing Work 👍
Thank you!
Thank you
Very intresting
Thank you hope it helps
This is a great video with very important information. Thanks so much for creating. Easy to understand, good visuals to demonstrate and very organized way to share the message. Looking forward to many more important videos like this.
Will do Lynne. Thanks!
Selamat datang, by the way!
Rock on, dude!!!!
Sometimes the RC not connected to MD is caused by software glitches. All it takes to reset and re-establish the connection is to select from the USB options of the Android shade another mode, the MD should reset the right type of connection and the Fly app should be able to reconnect again. It happened to me a lot when using different apps to control the Mini.
Thanks for your input. Ive not used any other third party app before so i wasnt aware of that, which i would agree based on similar logic that applied to PC USB port as well. Have u try unplug and plug back to see if it solve particularly your problem as well (applying PC logic too) 😅
@@CZRProduction yes. Unplugging and plugging it back in does the same but I like to minimize wear and tear on cable/ports.
@@m80116 thanks for the clarification. 👍👍👍👍
I have ma2 and I constantly loose connection with a new Motorola 1 phone. I have deleted and redownload Ed the APp bought new cords. Updated the firmware over and over and no matter where I am or how close I am to the drone. Even a few feet. I have tried all of everything
Does the controller LED blinking when it goes dc or stay solid like what i mentioned in the video? You can try fly VLOS without your phone to narrow down the problem. If without phone attached and is still the same, i guess it would be a defect.
Reboot the remote, or shut off the remote for 11 seconds or a little less and start it back up, by this time drone should have self initiated return home and then when your remote boots back up you should eventually get reconnected to it
nice info
Hi.my drone is mini se.May i know why everytime i lost my signal(black and white screen appear), the dji fly Apps will kick me out and want the rc to connect with the drone again?the rc light keep blinkin and every time i fail to connect
Hi, what do u meant by 'kick me out' ya? The rc will auto reconnect to the aircraft when the signal is established back. Otherwise u may have a pairing issue which is very rare.
@@CZRProduction Hi.Good morning. What i mean by kick me out is that the Apps will bring me to the home page.
@@robincbp i've heard that happen to certain phone and/or a bug on the App. Afterall if you lose connection, your livefeed is not working anymore so the only thing u can do is to face your remote antenna towards the drone direction and look at the remote LED indicator. Once it became solid, u know u had connection back and control, then you may open up the fly app as usual. To fix that issue, i am not sure if this is workable for your particular issue, but it used to fix alot of other issues with the App. Delete the app, restart your phone, and reinstall it back. Hope that's help
Just bought a Dji mini 2, this is my problem now, RC not connected..i tried different cord but still not working.😥
Try removing your phone case if any, and clean your phone port...
Hi..im facing this problem now..can i know, what is the cause? And how i should recover it..must i change a new cable?
Which problem ya? If rc not connected..., In most cases the cable and yeah u should replace it. Get the aftermarket one will do
When i use dual band from transmission option aircraft goes disconnected even from 5 feet distance, but if i select 2.4 ghz it gets connented with full signal. Any suggestion? Or what's wrong?
which model is that? There used to be connectivity prob with the mini 2 but i think it has been solved with AC firmware update as i didn't seen anyone reported that problem anymore...
It is mini 2, and latest firmware.
@@noorahmedmasum1952 Does the controller LED blinking when it goes dc at 5ft or was it stay solid? Try use back dual channel, wait for sufficient satellite, clear any calibration/authorization warning, take off, unplug your phone and fly VLOS to see if the problem persist. If everything is fine without the phone attached, you can try delete dji fly app, restart phone, and reinstall dji fly app
The led on rc is blinking while dc and also i tried downgrading/reinstalling the app, rc firmware refresh, but problem persists even with 12 satellites.
@@noorahmedmasum1952 i would guess is a defect then if the AC has never been crashed or water damaged before. Send it back for warranty and replacement if is still within warranty period.
I’m facing the same issue , after a few metre fly it shows aircraft not connected to rc , Rth . I’m not getting what can I do ?? Plz help me with a solution, everytime I fly my drone it shows signal lost aircraft not connected. Do you think it might be a internal issue . Plz reply
Which drone are u using?
Lmao in the first minute of this video you had literally laughing out loud!! I’ve saw that same screen 100 times in this first week with my DJI Mini 2! I bought it because I was tired of drones losing signal less than 100 m from take off.I get the whole urban area wifi.But I have been able to go alot farther.I was all excited to get to fly a whole time out with a constant signal….but oh no not me🙄
great video
what if you are down to the last light on battery level indicator?
The AC & RC connectivity blinking/pulsing is slower than the RC low battery blinking. As per my test, the RC light prioritize connectivity between AC & RC first.
This is happening with my mini 2 after 1.4.8 update. Losing connection
Please help me. My dji mavic mini disconnecting to remote aprox 2min even remote is beside it
The remote LED blinking during that time? Thats new, never seen ppl reported that yet, except for dji mini2 with one of the older dji fly app version
@@CZRProduction yes remote are blinking. Tried to relink no success. But if i remove battery from drone and turn it on it will connect again. Afer a min will disconnect again
@@renzomendoza8636 try connect the RC & AC without the mobile device and see if the issue persist. Also, u can try refresh the aircraft firmware via dji assistant 2 and see if that's help.
@@CZRProduction already tried both methods but no success
@@renzomendoza8636 i am sorry then i cant help as ive never encounter or seen any similar reported incidents as a reference. Best is to check directly with dji cs
Many says " point the RC to the Drone " how ? it's impossible to see where the drone is.
U may use the attitude indicator to line up with the aircraft.. here's a full guide of using it.

@@CZRProduction Thank you ! I tried to fly the mini 2 in my room and went 200 meters far and it said " signal lost " just only 200 meters. Do you think it has to do with me being in my room ?
@@Thesilentwolf7610 most probably caused by obstruction in between. Maybe walls, trees, buildings, any other solid structural..
@@CZRProduction Thanks man, however the video you sent me, the compass shows 3 markers ( homepoint , blue icon and drone icon blue ) mine only shows two , homepoint and drone blue icon. Where is the 3rd blue icon which is my position ?
@@Thesilentwolf7610 You may need to activate Location service with your phone to enable phone GPS for that 3rd blue icon (Remote with phone attached).
Thanks
To ensure signal loss - turn off the controller :)
Yup 1 of the way but make sure we know whats going on before deciding such option.
I really enjoy the Mini 2. I guess that's why I have two and 8 batteries. The only issue I have is not getting any video over 1080@50fps. But it's a firmware issue and they'll fix it when enough people bitch. Great Drones for the money and I won't give them up. Still great video and pics. I have two because I fly a lot....
Yup is a great tiny drone. U meant u cant record pass 1080@50fps? That seems to be the sdcard issue.
@@CZRProduction Funny how everyone wants to make this MY issue. Ok. I'm a LOT older than you and NOT and Idiot. Ok? Just for ONCE I would like to communicate with someone who can look at an Issue with logic. I have TWO...count them..TWO MINI 2'S...OK???? THEY BOTH HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.... I use the SAME SD CARDS as the guys I know who fly a Mavic Pro and Mavic Air...so let's just for ONCE, say that I did EVERYTHING RIGHT..OK??? CAN WE JUST ONCE TRY TO START WITH THAT AND TRY AND SEE IF THIS PROBLEM CAN GET FIXED??? IT WON'T GET FIXED IF YOU KEEP TRYING TO BLAME ME...DAMN WHAT THEY HELL IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE? I DIDN'T SCREW UP TWO DRONES.....
@@normsimpson2342 i am sorry i didnt meant to say it was your issue. I am just saying the cause of the problem might be from the sdcard. If u dont mind, would u tel me what sdcard are u using? That's one. Another thing is sdcard write/read speed tend to become slower and unstable as times goes by, so when this happen, a good sdcard will create problems in maintaining write speed. 1080p doesnt required massive write speed and that could be why u still can record that but not 2.7k/4k.
@@CZRProduction I've got all brand new fancy high speed Sandisk cards. The same ones 85% of the video public use. Both guys I know with Mavic Pro and Mavic Air use the same cards just fine. And neither of my two mini 2's need what they need. Everything is New. I even got a brand new Galaxy just to run the drones. It's NOT me. It's Firmware.
Oh, and my First Mini 2 did GREAT for the first week or so until I did the FIRST FIRMWARE UPDATE...so yeah...
What is,the solution pls make a video
Hi, sorry what solution ya?
@@CZRProduction my mini 2 have same issue connection lost issue what is the solution?
@@afnanhossainpriyo8344 connection lost between AC & RC or RC & phone?
Rc not connected & display make black & white issue as like your video same to same..
@@afnanhossainpriyo8344 rc not connected to mobile device warning msg on top left = 99% cable problem.
Bro thx for the video
I have a problem with Mavic Mini 2
It's often lose signals, and It is still not that far away from lands.
I want to take bird eye view/ shot from top of a lands or houses, since I worked as real estate agent.
1. It is lose signals, and often go fly higher, and I cannot see anything from my phone.
2. The worse case is, the connection so bad, and It is "logout." I need to reconnected It by pressong the button bellow the drone, but the drone are flying so high.
Sorry for my bad english, but I hoped you could helped me.
Thank you very much

You're most welcome. Which 'lose signal' are your encountering? As for no.2, if you are required to press the button below the drone, and in the same time pressing the remote button as well, that is called pairing. So far i've never heard of the RC & AC when out of pairing during mid flight...
@@CZRProduction the Ac lose signal to Rc
The problem of that pairing, It is happening mid flight. I need to reconnect It with the Ac and Rc button, but mid flight and that Ac flying very high.
@@vidarodinson5246 I think there must be something wrong with your drone board/chip if pairing is suddenly required in mid flight. You may have to consult DJI for further analysis.
@@CZRProduction is it comes from the Rc or Ac
@@vidarodinson5246 Most probably AC but i might be wrong on this thou...

Take the mask off and you’ll get a better signal.😷
Hahahaha, i wish i can, cant afford to pay for the fine in our country without mask in public
