My Mavic Air has decided that after ~2 hours of use to only fly at a horizontal speed of 2m/s, this means it goes vertical faster.

Is there a way to fix this or is it deliberate due to airspace restrictions (roughly 3km from any zones UK) and how to disable the (presumably) software block.


Thanks.

Hi Okka,

We are sorry to know that you have issues with the Mavic Air, just want to verify did you noticed any error message on the screen or any chipped and damages on the propeller?  Have you tried calibrating the remote controller?

Hi,

I just looked at my drone and there seems to be no physical damage. When I fly everything is ok and there are no error messages.

I have had mine a while and it has suddenly started doing the same. Things I have tried; compass/IMU calibration, firmware check, vision calibration, different phone, different battery. Still the same but checking a few other things. Also I am getting a restricted zone message in areas I didn't used to (and aren't restricted) so that may be related.

Hi Okka. Thank you for update. Just want to confirm did you fly the drone continuously for 2 hours? Thank you.

no, that was total time - it is fixed now. I recalibrated the IMU
