I might as well join the crowd but slightly different. Like others have said, I to have ONLY had mine 2 weeks. Firmware updates correct and complete. Wanted to calibrate imu just for the heck of it. Nope, nada! Right after firmware update and before 1st flight, imu won't go past 95% period. Went ahead and did a low and slow flight. Everything ok. Did a 1 mile flight, everything is fine. I'm just leary that the imu won't calibrate. Yes I have tried almost everything. Reboot several times, placed the drone on different areas on the ground and inside my house on a pool table. Can't get anymore level than that! I really don't know if I should email dji and see about an exchange or not. I had a mavic air that was a lot of fun but wanted the better camera and the flight time, distance. It is a 1 gen and I know it so I will have patience as long as they will communicate with me.
Update 8/6/2020; Looked into more threads and finally found the answer an hour later.
Yes imu was stuck at 95% but followed the other drone images going from one side to another.
It worked! Complete! Then I thought, lets go fly! Did 20 minutes then went to sport mode. Bad joice. Almost dark outside at a decent speed, went out of sight then I heard a thud.
Well it ended up in a palm tree. All I'm thinking is thank God for the Refresh insurance!
25 feet in the air, took a 2x4x4 and threw it at it. A few throws later I hit it and it came down in some plush grass.
The palm tree fans cushioned the crash! Nothing wrong with it. I should play the lottery today!
