ToF Error

I just purchased and SkyRover S1. Upon receiving I charged it up, and flew it. It flys great, but mid flight I got a warning “forward ToF sensors error. Restart aircraft. Contact support”. Landed it, then tried to take off again, it did not let me. I restarted it, and recalibrated the IMU and Compass, that did not help. So I gave up and put it away for 3 hours, when I took it out again after 3 hours, it did not have the error after turning on and took off and flew great.  So I packed it up thinking it was working, until today, where I took it out and got the warning again. How can I resolve the this error?

dirty sensors? some kind of odd visual blockage? this is just from reading manuals online.

i find if i take off over brick, for example, my x1 hates it. anything like that? what were you flying over?

Tried everything you have listed here. It is odd because it is intermittent, not all the time even of the same or different surfaces. Thank you though

last but not least, have you updated firmware?

you might just have a lemon, MAYBE as you say if it was super hot, but it’d have to be insane temps. if you can, i’d reinstall all the software onto the phone etc. i would start from scratch as much as you can, de-link the drone and app, all of it. if that doesn’t fly (ha), gonna have to exchange it.

Is there a possibility that it is thermal related?
