Right on my first flight with my brand new Mavic 2 Pro, I noticed that every time I fly horizontally from left to right or right to left the camera always tilts to the left creating an unpleasant not levelled image.
I have already done the following troubleshooting:

Gimbal auto-calibration
Drone Firmware refresh

None it has fixed the issue.

be shure your gimbal is in "follow" mode.  If it's in "FPV" mode, it will tilt when manoeuvering to give a first-person perspective experience.

Hey mate,

Thanks for the message.

I can confirm that the gimbal has always been on "follow" mode.

It must be a problem with the gimbal itself.

Hi, thank you for reaching out and we do apologize for the inconvenience. May I please ask what happened prior to the issue occurs? Did the drone experience any hard landing? Also, can you please confirm if it does the same thing even you set it to "Follow Mode" or "FPV Mode"? Please keep us posted. Thank you!

Hey mate,

Thanks for the reply. Nothing has happened. I flew my drone only three times without any hard landing. I am an experienced pilot with over three years of experience. I have purchased the drone under a month ago, and this issue has been happening right out of the box.

You can find below a link to a video that shows what it is happening.

I had to send it back to DJI.

It was a hardware problem.

Downgrading a firmware helped https://forum.dji.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=209352&mobile=2

That is exactly the issue I'm having as well. Sadly I bought mine many months ago and never dreamed it would have been a hardware issue. I hope they will fix mine also.

Hi, I correctly updated the Mavic2 Pro the day before yesterday (without any problem) to the latest software and I realized that the resting gimbal is slightly yawed on the left, even despite the calibration of the gimbal itself and IMU. Do you have news of this bug?
Thank you

I just returned my Mavic 2 Pro with this same issue and they said it was not covered under my one year standard warranty. It's only 5 months old. I had to pay 250 bucks. I'm not even sure if this repair they are doing has solved this issue. The images they sent me of the damage was not even my droneI'll have it back in about a week and I'll report back.

Hello. I’ve had my drone for 2 days and I’ve only flown it once. I am also having this problem. Is the only resolution so far to return it?
