I don't have a Mavic 2 Zoom, but both my Air and Phantom experience altimeter (barometer) inaccuracies over the course of the flight. Since it works off the barometer, changing conditions can throw off the altitude a bit (it's been suggested that the heat from the drone itself can throw it off a little). My first phantom would sometimes end up 40 feet of altitude off after a 15 minute flight (I exchanged it for a e second that was a little better) For this reason, I never trust it to hold an exact altitude. Normally, the vision sensors would keep it from crashing if it could detect the ground, but as noted, they don't always work over ice/water.
In other words - if a tiny bit of altitude change is important in your situation, please pay close attention to what the bird is doing. |
