DJI RC calibration : not reaching 100% on joystick

My equipment : DJI Mini 3 Pro + DJI RC.
The display requested a calibration of the RC (error code 60010).
As asked, I tried to calibrate the remote controller by moving the joysticks in all directions as well as the two control wheels underneath.
No problem with the left joystick and the right control wheel, all directions reaching 100%.
But the right joystick moved to the left reaches only 43%, and the left control wheel does not reach the maximum in both directions either.
It is not possible to use the drone until this calibration has been completed.
Does anyone have an idea how to proceed to reach the 100% on the joysticks and on the control wheels.
Is there an issue with the RC ?
Thanks in advance.

Hello there Atschoum. I am sorry for the trouble this has caused and thank you for reaching out. First, kindly please check whether the joystick of your DJI RC is in the center position. Second, may we know the way you pack and carry DJI RC Pro when you done the flight? Third, would you please enter joystick calibration page and see if there are any abnormal input even without pulling joysticks? Thank you.

Hello Stephen,
I refer to a DJI RC - not a DJI RC Pro...
I use to protect the RC unit within a small homemade fabric bag.
All joysticks are in central position with no abnormal input, indicating 0%.
Then I move the joysticks in each direction to get a 100% signal (as asked for calibration).
This works well, except for one movement to the left with right joystick, where I reach only 43% at the maximum extend.
This is also the case for the control wheels : it works fine with one of them, reaching the maximum in both directions.
But again it doesn't work with the second control wheel, where it is not possible to reach the maximum extend (no indication of the percentage).
Thus it is not possible to resume the calibration of the RC - and thus not possible to fly the drone...
Thank you for your answer.

Thanks for the video provided. Please try to connect the DJI RC to a computer and then upgrade/refresh the firmware via DJI Assistant 2 to see if the issue still exists. https://www.dji.com/mini-3-pro/downloads
If the issue still exists, you may need to submit a case through the link below and send it back for further testing. http://www.dji.com/support

hello! I have a very similar issue

my DJI RC calibration : not reaching 100% on the right joystick. I have the dji mini pro 3

First it was going "up" to 40% without me touching the joystick. left and right would remain on 0% even when pushing the joystick to the max.
I then downloaded the app "DJI assistance 2" and did a frimware refresh. re tryed the calibration.

now the left and right go to 100% normally. but the up and down remain in 0%

it seems therefor more a frimware/calibration issue than a physical issue.

any advice?

thanks

I have the same problem with the DJI RC controller. When I calibrate,  as I'm forced to,  the right joystick pulled to the left only reaches 95%.
But it happens only once in a while. Is there a log file in the controller, that can document, when I have gotten the error message "RC calibration needed " and the result of the failed attempts to calibrate.?

Hello, there. Sorry for the inconvenience. May we confirm that your DJI RC works properly? Did you encounter any issue since the last time?

I testen the drone  and DJI RC right now and everything works fine. The problem is, that it is unreliable.

I have a brand new se2 mini and I am getting a calibration error persisting no matter how many times I calibrate. So insanely frustrating as I got this right before my trip to Costa Rica. Worked for 4-5 flights and now it’s useless

Calibration completes and immediately after beeping continues

Reloaded drone firmware ans did nothing.

If the issue disappears and the DJI RC works as it should, we will recommend you continue using it and pay attention to the issue. Once it reoccurs, please send it back for diagnosis.
If you are really concerned about that, you can send it back to our service center for further testing, too.

Hello, there. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
May we confirm if the issue still persists even after the joystick calibration is completed?

Thanks for your concern on my problem. I will keep testing, and make photos next time to document the problem.

I have this exact same issue with my Mavic 3 and it’s with the DJI RC. My solution is physically twisting the controller like you might ring out a towel (yes this sounds ridiculous). I gently twist until I the blue light goes away and no more calibration is needed.

Hello,
I have the same problem than all of you.
The only solution is to send it back to DJI?
What I found out, if I press C1 and C2, I manage to go to 100% with the joystick but is not enought to get it calibrated approved.
Thanks to fans1b0a929a, the "twisting" works...
Someone fund a solution to fix this problem in the long terme?
Thanks for your support

I am having a very similar problem.  I have the Mavic 3 Classic and ever since getting it the calibration on the remote will sometimes work and sometimes not, I have no rhyme or reason for it.  When I go to calibrate, the right joystick only will do a phantom percentage to the left sometimes (without me even pressing anything) and other times when I go to calibrate will never reach close to 100% going to the left.  Sometimes it won't go to the right either.  I sent my whole drone and controller in to get fixed, was told everything looked fine and upon return still had the same problem.  

Other times it will calibrate and then once in the air seem to lose it's calibration and veer off to the left or to the right.  It has been an endlessly furiating problem as I can not tell what is the cause.  All firmware has been constantly updated, I have factory reset everything a couple times and the problem still persists.  Oddly enough it will fly perfectly every so often.  Calibration will work perfectly and when I take off I have no issues, yet sometimes the calibration will work perfect, it will fly for a bit perfectly and then all of a sudden have the veering issues.  I have not been flying it anywhere I would like to as I'm terrified it will never return or crash and burn somewhere I can't retrieve it.  Not sure where else to post this, I hope someone can help!
