Your Aeroo Pro relies on GPS satellites to fly smoothly while in GPS mode. If it isn't picking up enough satellites and taking a little while to connect, try these steps to get connected.
Quick Steps to Improve Satellite Connection
Step 1: Fly in a Clear, Open Area
Move to a wide, open space outdoors with a clear view of the sky. Staying away from large metal structures, buildings, or power lines helps the drone find satellites more easily.
Step 2: Allow Time to Connect
On your first flight in a new location, it may take up to 3 minutes for the drone to find and lock onto enough satellites. This is normal and ensures a strong connection is established.
Step 3: Perform a Compass Calibration
If satellites still aren’t locking after a few minutes, perform a compass calibration in the Aeroo Fly app. After calibration, wait another 2–3 minutes for the GPS signals to stabilise.
Why Does This Happen?
- Obstructions: tall trees, buildings, or metal objects can block and weaken satellite signals.
- Cold starts: The first time you fly in a new area, the system takes a little extra time to sync with nearby satellites.
Once the connection is established, the drone will remember its location to ensure a faster connection next time.
