Hi everyone,
Today I saw some problems with stabilizing. All time its all ok until I stop the Drone in one place. It cant stay in one place, its moving all the time even if there is no wind. I tried imu calibration, compass calibration, gimbal calibration, even downgrade software..all time is the same. Anybody has the same issue? Greetings

This can happen if you are in ATTI mode. Should not happen in P mode

Ever since I updated to latest firmware I've had this issue. I've tried EVERYTHING to fix it ( Calibration of IMU and Compass , Updated firmware and also downgraded, tried factory reset )and nothing works. I tried to make a thread on the forum but it wont let me so I'm leaving this here. Probably gonna return this Phantom 4 Pro because the idea of trying to trouble shoot a $1500 drone rather than fly it doesn't sound appealing to me. Sad part is my P3S is rock solid yet the "more advaced" P4P has altitude issues floating up and down, as well as drifting, even in no wind. Everything was FINE before this update. Now, issues that can't be resolved by downgrading or factory reset. Disappointed.

I see that You are beginner here on forum, but are you beginner in drone industry? You said have done IMU calibration. Was it made on very, VERY leveled surface? Can You post readings of sensors from DJI GO app or best record it and post?

I've been researching drones for months and I'm diligent about doing things correctly. My P3S has ZERO issues at all and I've done calibrations on it multiple times. This P4P issue appeared right after I updated the firmware to 1.03

If You use DJI Assistant, You can revert back firmware, or firstly try "restore factory settings" under Your current firmware. Maybe this will help.

I personally tried that already. Downgraded back to last firmware version, then I tried a straight up factory reset and nothing changed.

Just before sending it to warranty - please look at manual. I dont remember exactly, but I think there was something about accurancy of GPS mode. And it was around +/- 1.5 meter . This means, the drone can hoover on sides on 1.5m . But this value is not 100% sure - look into manual please.

Well it is hovering around with a deviation of 10+ feet up and down and it never did this before. Honestly theres no way I'd deal with DJI warranty. There CS is a JOKE. I'm just gonna take it back to bestbuy. Save my money.

Adrian8891 it was made on very leveled surface, the imu1 is 0,05 and imu2 0,03-0,04 so all is okey.

Does it do this everywhere of have you just noticed it in one location?
What height?
What was the ground like?

VPS has trouble with surfaces that it can't lock onto - like grass or concrete.
Go higher out of VPS range.

To imbed a video, from a mobile device, remove the m and replace it with www.


Also remove the & sign and everything past it.

I am having similar problems with the latest firmware on my P4P.   I ''twas flying fine before, now after the upgrade; 1) it won't hold altitude (hover), and 2) when I fly forward it will only go a few feet, them immediately stop.  3) it flies very slow, 2-4 MPH at full throttle.   I checked for beginner mode and tripod mode, both are turned off.
