Today, DJI has released firmware update v01.00.0600 with the following fixes:
I only saw this problem occasionally, but when the GPS lock was stubborn, it could take many minutes, and the drone could even lose the GPS lock in flight and start behaving erratically. I'd need to put a few hours of flight into this new firmware to know for sure that the issue has been fixed, but the testing I have carried out today suggests that GPS lock is noticeably faster and GPS lock more secure.
I've been very happy with the Mavic 3, having now flown it for many months in several countries, and even taking it to the rim of an active volcano.
