Hello. I'm rather new to this. I bought an mavic air, used. The problem is that the forward and backward stick does not do anything with the drone. I have tried everything i could find on the net, but nothing helps. All calibration is done all factory reset is tried, nothing seems to work. Anyone have an idea, or did i just throw my money out the window?

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out and we're sorry for the trouble. Can you please confirm what specific Mavic air are you currently using? Are you using the Mavic Air, Mavic Air 2, or DJI Air 2s? Also, please provide us with a short video showing the issue or a screenshot showing the error message on the DJI Fly so we can check it further. Please keep us posted. Thank you.

Don't know about anyone else but that page want me to log in and I don't see a way past that.
Did you calibrate the controller?

I don't think it's the controller. I tried to switch to "Mode 1" same problem but the other way around, i mean in "Mode 2" it was the right stick and in "Mode 2" it was the left stick.
So i think it is something to do with the drone :-(

That's a pity.
Where are you testing this, indoors or outside?
If indoors or flying from somewhere surrounded by obstacles, is obstacle avoidance ( OA ) switched on? If so switch OA off.

Both in and out. Latest thing is that it works in wifi mode!?  EDIT: well at least for a few meters :-(

Tried with and without OA

PROBLEM SOLVED! MY TEST TAKE OF SPOT WAS TO NARROW! TURNS OUT I DID HAVE OA TURNED ON. SORRY FOLKS! THANKS!
