Hello

long time i did not used forum..... i'm Florian, 36, from France me and my wife have A P4P and a mavic.
I flyed today with the Mavic and i noticed he was drifting even the wind was not  strong!
Have to compensate with rigth or left stick to keep the direction!


Is it normal
?

Hi, we're sorry to know about this situation. I would recommend re-calibrating the IMU and compass of your drone to see if there will be changes. Please keep us posted on the latest progress for further assistance.

If you were in GPS mode, it should not drift, Maybe you were in ATTI mode ....


See https://forum.dji.com/thread-133818-1-1.html

Thanx for reply!

I was in Gps mode.

The drone dont drift when i dont move, but when i come back « to home », he dont keep the a straigth line and i compensate à lot with stick.

The wind was no so strong, but maybe it push the mavic on the side? Its a common thing in aeronotic. But i wonder.

I’ll try to recalibrate and test.

Thx

I compared with the P4P, and i guess this one is more stable in windy condition anyway.
I'll try in perfects conditions

Thx for your reply

I posted in "smart controller" too if someone has somme suggestions.

Hi, thanks for the update. We're glad to know that the performance of your Mavic Air has been optimized via the calibration. May you please always have a safe flight. Thank you for continued support.

Since you have not used it in a while you should do a calibration on it.
