Hi,

I have been getting ultrsound sensor warnings boxes flashing up on the screen whilst flying my mavic. After getting this warning for a third time i have noticed that one of the sensors beneath the mavic seems to be loose/floating around in the mesh housing.

Could someone please let me know if this a common thing or a rare thing.

If it is not meant to be then how do i go about getting it fixed?

yours hopefully

The ultrasound system's purpose is primarily for landing and for accurate height measurement up to a few meters.  If you have a loose receiver or transmitter element, erroneous results will occur.  While this may confuse the Mavic into taking some strange movements, it should not effect normal operation of the GPS.

It the US system is broken, you may have trouble landing or get an erroneous VPS height measurement showing up in GO.

If it's loose get it fixed.
