Last night I was setting up to launch a Typhoon H480. The UAV Forecast App was saying "Not Good To Fly" and had "Sats Locked" highlighted in red at 10.8. The ST-16 was reading 11 and so was the drone.
I figured it was safe but the drones motors wouldn't start. When the number of satellites for the drone went to 12 I was able to start the motors. I was in Angle Mode and I've looked through the manual and I'm not seeing anything that says you need a minimum of 12 satellites to start the motors. Was this just a fluke or is it SOP? It took a really long time to get to 11 satellites and even longer to get to 12. What explains this issue?
