Hey all,

Just picked up an Air 2s combo and noticed one thing that my other drones Mavic 2 zoom and mini 2 does not have is the fact that the Air2s when turning left or right it auto banks on turns. Is this an Air2s feature and is there a setting that can disable this? I don't have the gimble setting to FPV in case someone asks.

Do you men that the video banks, or only the drone?
It is normal for the drone to bank in turns, it is not an FPV drone, most new drones do this, however there should be no banking visible on video.

Only the drone. Video is steady.

Hi,

Yes, this auto banking was introduced few firmware updates ago.
Not only does it autobank but the forward speed is reduced also!

cheers

Is that in the MA2s only? How big are the speed reductions?

What do you consider to be a new drone?
That I am aware of my Mavic Mini, Mini 2 and Mavic 2 Pro drones do NOT automatically bank the drone during a turn. I wish they did!!! Indeed the resulting side slip (coupled with my lack of familiarity at the time) has caused me scares and at least one crash, which was, of course, with the M2P.

i can only check this om my own MA2, but speed reduce is huge.
See if i can get the speed reduction in one of my flightlogs.

This auto-banking feature included in dji drones is causing me so many problems. There is a signature maneuver that I have always used with my Mavic 2 pro, but the auto-banking on the mavic 3 makes it impossible. I am even considering returning the drone and switching to a different company for my drones from now on. Please, DJI, please remove this feature or at least make it possible to deactivate!
