As there have been MULTIPLE threads started on various serious issues cropping up with Mavic Air's since DJI's release of firmware v01.00.0400, I wanted to compile a list of them and keep then together as best as possible...
There are also posts on these same issues over at mavicpilots.com, so good to go check them out, as it would appear DJI is deleting overly negative posts here, allow me to explain...
Over the last 2-3 weeks, several pilots posted threads with videos depicting the Mavic Air in Active Track mode, locked on a subject (all people), and in the video it shows the MA suddenly deciding to dive bomb the locked-on subjects! These threads / videos now seem to have disappeared!
I want to keep this alive to finally pressure DJI into action with either:
- Giving affected owners the ability to downgrade back to .0300 until they've worked out the MAJOR issues with .0400
- Stop deflecting owner complaints and posting patronizing and useless "tips" and acknowledge publicly there is an issue and commit to fixing it FAST
It's been over a month since .0400 was released, and the issues continue to mount, and DJI support staff just put out mindless support tips.
MAKE A PUBLIC STATEMENT and ACKNOWLEDGE the issue, and provide a detailed explanation of what you're doing to address it! At least then you'll begin to regain the trust of your customers...
UPDATE:
I added the link to the "Drone Attack" thread, where a MA dive-bombed a young girl on the beach on the head. Others here have claimed this thread was deleted, and whilst its good to see it hasn't, it still doesn't show up in search when the search term "attack" is used.
UPDATE 2:
Most of the useful information was posted within the first 3 or 4 pages, but as of around page 4 onward, this thread got hijacked by some posters who just don't know how to behave and don't know when to quit, so just putting this out there to save yourselves some time if you choose to go thru the entire thread.
UPDATE 3:
I have added another thread detailing issues occuring as a result of the combined 0400 FW and DJI GO 4 4.2.21 app update, causing video lag and signal dropouts.
UPDATE 4:
I've added a thread about the Mavic Pro, where users are complaining about an extremely similar issue as the MA, where the drone will yaw and drift to the right during flight or while hovering. While technically not an MA issue, it lends credence to the fact these drones share a common code base in the firmware, and that something DJI changed in that code base is affecting more than one drone model. Also worthy of note, is that DJI hid this thread from the search index, and main browsing index of the forum, which basically renders it deleted, hence why I wanted to bring it back to view here.
UPDATE 5:
Added two new threads at the bottom of the list discussing multiple FW issues, including more yaw / pitch drift problems.
