Is there a way to set comression/quality for the JPEG files stored on SD card? Something like Low/Normal/Fine/Extra fine or %% values?

I've been looking at the produced JPEGs at 100% and they show a very high degree of compression artefacting, especially when foliage is concerned. Shooting everithing in JPEG+RAW (DNGs have an acceptable level of detail) as a habit carried over from DSLR usage. Still would like to have the JPEGs in higher quality (less compression) than what Mavic outputs now.

Someone else will hopefully chime in, but I don't think you can change the JPEG quality settings(?).

There are currently no JPG options. I agree, the JPG are very often "overcooked" to my eye, though sometimes they're acceptable.

No option - its hardcoded.  Just use the DNG.

DNG is your best bet!

For me, in general, it looks more to be too aggressive noise reduction than compression being the problem. But fully agree the JPG quality leaves much to be desired. And, no... there's no direct settings to adjust neither compression nor noise reduction :-(
DNG is a bit more trouble (requires post-processing), but gives you much better results.

Thanks for the replies. I sent a feature request through the DJI Go app for JPEG quality/NR control settings.

There is no this option yet. Thanks for the advice, hope we can add this function to camera settings.
