Smart Function and Follow Me mode Problems

Please be aware it is very easy to get the compass warning when connected to the GUI, just because you are inside and near a computer. This is mine with a piece of metal held about an inch from the antenna mast:

This is the same screen a few seconds after I moved the piece of metal away:

Were you outside in an open area away from anything metal during the compass calibration?
Do you get compass warnings during flight?

Other Questions:

1- Does the Hardware Monitor look normal on the Controller?

2- Have you done a control stick calibration?

3- Is the ST10+ selected to flight Mode 2?

Using the last page of the GUI, what firmware version is installed on the Chroma itself?

Have you done a factory reset of the ST10+?
1- Everything seems normal in the control
2- I have already calibrated the control, all the buttons and sensors seem fine.
3- I deleted the previous profile and created a new one, I blinded the drone and camera. I selected Mode 2, but when I click edit it appears as Mode 4. :rolleyes:

Firmware 1.02

I may have caused confusion. I meant to ask about Controller Mode2. Please confirm your response meant this:
Does your controller show Controller Mode2 on this screen?

Can you upload a picture of the Edit screen that says Mode 4?

Well, after many attempts, the problem has been solved. The Smart Mode is now working, and the Follow Me mode has been fixed. Basically, what I did was restore the controller to factory settings and create a new user.

Previously, when I selected Flight Settings > Mode 2 and then went to the Model Select section, the drone's image didn’t appear. Instead, an image for Mode 4 showed up. I hope I explained myself clearly.

After resetting the controller and creating a new user, I selected Mode 2, and now the Blade Chroma image appears in Model Select. I’m not sure if the issue was due to that or if the reset itself resolved the problem.

Thank you for your time and assistance. Wishing you an excellent and prosperous New Year!

Here are the logs if you want to take a look. I conducted the test in a closed area.
Flight 4 looks a lot better than the original flight logs. The controller shows more movement on the ground than it should, once about 50 meters through a wall. That would give some challenge to "follow me", but it could also be a result of the controller location below the roof tops of the surrounding buildings. I would not worry too much until you have a chance to do a test in open ground.
Lots of luck and good hopes for flying.
Remember the Chroma does not see obstacles. And understand it will follow where it THINKS the controller is. If the controller GPS gets blocked or reflected and displays a position inside a mountain or a building, the Chroma will try to follow it. Fly high above any power lines, trees, buildings, etc. at least for a few flights until you get to know the aircraft and its behavior.
