Your Matrice 300/350 RTK (M300/M350) or Mavic 3 Enterprise (M3E) drone comes equipped with Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) GPS correction technology. However, Propeller uses a Post-Processing Kinematic (PPK) workflow to process survey data.
If you receive a message on your remote controller (RC) saying “RTK Position Error, RTK disconnected (0x1), Restart aircraft and resume RTK,” the aircraft’s RTK positioning is active and must be turned off.
Turning Off RTK Positioning
To turn the aircraft’s RTK positioning off:
1. Power on your RC and aircraft, ensuring they are connected.
2. From the home screen of Pilot 2, tap Enter Camera View.
3. Tap the X at the top-right to close the Preflight Check menu.
4. Tap the three dots at the top-right corner.
5. Tap on the RTK (Satellite) icon.
6. Turn off RTK Positioning.
7. Turn off Maintain Positioning Accuracy Mode.
8. Set Select RTK Service Type to NONE.
9. If prompted, restart your aircraft.
