This is the first DJI drone that fly using WIFI . Does this technology have  something to do with this issue ? Check the WIFI -RC switch ?

I have  had a Mavic for 2 weeks now it flies smooth . The controller has no issues so far . I don't know maybe they rushed the productions & I'm afraid with this pressure & Complaints from people it will make DJI want production go fast and it might cause quality issues .

Interesting video. I think he has it nailed, but is wrong on one point. He thinks it's hardware, and not software, but I disagree.

When he is moving the sticks, and they get "stuck" off center... You will notice that all the values DO return to zero... I believe the stick reads correctly, but due to a software bug, is evaluated incorrectly, or is being onfluenced by another source. I do not believe that the magnetic controls are at fault. The problem is, in my opinion, in the firmware of the controller.

In short, if it was the magnetic sticks, tbe number values would get "stuck" along with the off center dot, but that is not the case.

Anoyher good observation. One would think that everyone would know by now that this is wrong. They should both be up, and parallel.

Wonder who's kid that was when he was showing the yaw flutter. Maybe he could have been a little closer.

Not sure who made the first video but here is mine doing the same thing.  I had antennas in the proper place also.
Sorry for the bad video

i wonder.....does the joystick mode have anything to do with these issues?  I wounder if the people that were experiencing them would have the same result on a different mode.  Albeit, no one should have to change a mode to fix an issue, but just a thought.
if someone brought this up already and tested it out let me know.

Can somebody with this issue try the simulator. It seams obvious than if it's a controler issue only, it should happen. Why nobody is trying. WE need to know. I don't have mine yet but i'm planing on loging few hours on simulator  before flying it.
