Hello there Hassan Kazamel. I am sorry for the trouble this has caused and thank you for reaching out. Have you tried to calibrate the IMU and check if the firmware of your DJI Mini 2 is up to date? In addition are you receiving any error messages on the DJI Fly application when this is happening. Please keep us posted for further assistance. Thank you and fly safe always.

Dear Stephen,
Thank you for your reply.
When I got the drone before first flight I did update the firmware up to newest update.
I never did IMU Calibration.. But I did compass calibration, I never got any error messages.
Now I did IMU calibration, but after I did IMU calibration I am getting repeated message to calebrate the compass!!!
After I did the IMU calibration I did 6 times compass calibration and still I am getting messages to calibrate the compass again and again!!!

I am not sure what others think but that is a very small amount of movement in my view especially as I think you are zoomed in.

By the way if you hold down the F key on the left top of the controller and use the wheel you will get a smooth zoom effect

I do not really see a problem with that, I think the drone was too high for the VPS system to work and so height is +- 0.5m. That would, I suspect, account for what you see. You might like to have a read of the webpage https://www.phantomhelp.com/logviewer/upload/ upload the log to there and then copy and paste the resulting link here.

The unstable movement is likely a result of mechanical turbulence from the building.    Air currents that would otherwise flow smoothly are affected by  manmade objects, trees, mountains, etc.    As the moving air forms eddies and rotors around these objects, any airborne craft like a drone is automatically going to be affected irregardless of built-in stability features.   My Mini 2 is all over the place in my backyard (relative to normal smooth movement) with even moderate wind conditions because of mechanical turbulence from the roof of my house, yard fence, and storage buildings on the premises.

Try some photography in an open area with relatively calm winds aloft and compare your footage with that of the one on Facebook.   If the open area video footage appears smoother and stabilized, turbulence is indeed the culprit.   Really, the only way to cope with unstable air is to try and find a day with the right wind conditions aloft if you plan to video around tall buildings, etc.   Morning hours tend to manifest the most stable air, but sometimes it's hit and miss no matter how much you plan.
