Hi all

Today I have samll folow up to my previos issue with gimbal tilt. I have received replacement drone from Dji. The first one was treated as DOA.




Thanks for waching.

Hello there spawacz_rider. Tank you for posting this video and for giving us an update with regards to your DJI Mini 2 replacement drone.

Have a safe flight always and Happy New Year to you and to your family. .

Nice to see!

Nicely done.    

Glad you got your replacement drone and that it is working well.  Stay safe and have a Happy New Year.

I received my replacement Mini 2 a few days ago and today made the 'maiden flight'. Everything worked smoothless, no errors, straight flying, battery capacity fine. Thanks DJI for you quick service.

Is the horizon still straight? And is it still not jerking the gimbal going left and right in sports mode?

Horizon is still strait and I did not observe any movements left or right in sport mode.

The only one thing is when you have camera at 0* in sport mode with full forward it will dip down. But I can leave with that. Rest is OK so far.

Ok thanks for the reply and everything is good now, Sounds like they have shipped out a lot of 1st batch faulty units.

In your film, however, I see a slight curve of the horizon at times. I have the same at home and only sometimes. I think it has to do with the sensitivity of the IMU sensor to changes in ambient temperature. And this changes due to, for example, increasing battery temperature. This problem is described, for example, on the Wiki in the context of the IMU. Therefore, more expensive drone models have duplicate IMUs. I have a smartphone gimbal and I also observe the tendency to periodically bend the horizon line there. Maybe there is no point in picking on the details?

I think is good enough to be fair. I cant observe any dramatic tilting this time and (at lease right now), previously I have more then 10* of tilt so was going to extreme. If is going to stay like it is now I will be happy

I'm afraid if you update the firmware and the app, problems will start. Maybe not even known to you so far.

I have all up to date. Latest software on the phone and latest firmware on Mini2

Glad you got a replacement and it works well!
