    Frustrating DJI/Newegg Experience.

    Yeah my first thought was Chinese New Year, I would just think here in the states that there operations wouldn't slow down too much as I imagine there is a much more diverse crew working in California. I am just hoping this gets resolved soon, it's not like it needs to be refunded urgently, I...

    Frustrating DJI/Newegg Experience.

    So I pre-ordered my Mavic back in December and received it early January. I loved the Mavic but after having gimbal issues and being overall disappointed in the image quality I decided to return it for a refund. I reached out to Newegg/DJI and had them issue an RMA for the Mavic. I sent it back...

    MAVIC Pro Gimbal Micro shakes

    I went ahead and just returned the Mavic, I really didn't want repair being done to a brand new item. I have had them repair a Phantom 3 for me previously which I received back with dust under the lens and a scratch on the glass. Not saying that is normal but the last thing I want is a refurb...

    MAVIC Pro Gimbal Micro shakes

    I don't think this is the same, but I returned my Mavic Pro for gimbal vibration when flying at full speed with the camera pointing straight forward. It had the problem from day 1 and they wanted me to send it in for repair and I wasn't down for repairing a brand new product. I am waiting for...

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    Yours seems more like abrupt changes in the movement of the Mavic that the gimbal can't compensate for, which I would assume is normal, although I never saw such drastic movement in my gimbal even when flying erratically in sport mode. Mine only happens when traveling at full speed going...

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    No I never flew it with the bubble on. I think mine was just defective.

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    I purchased it from Newegg but the order was fulfilled by DJI directly. After doing the return request on Newegg's website I received an RMA number and information about where to ship the item. From that point on I have been communicating with DJI directly and so far has gone smoothly. I sent...

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    I calibrated the gimbal, IMU, compass, tried different firmware but nothing worked. DJI requested that I send it in for repair after showing them a video of the problem. I decided to return it as I had only had it a week and didnt want to already have to repair the unit.

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    I could have probably focused that shot better, the issue is not the focus but the gimbal intermittently vibrating while flying.

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    I finally got around to uploading a video illustrating the problem. I have since sent my Mavic back to DJI for a refund. I am not sure whether I want to wait for the Mavic 2 or possibly a different quad, like the Phantom 4 Pro. I am rather disappointed as I really loved my Mavic, but this issue...

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    I originally thought the same thing so I turned the setting on to allow the gimbal to tilt up and it doesn't help unfortunately.

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    So after flying it more I have found that it will happen in P-mode as well as Sport as long as it is flying forward at full speed. If I tilt the gimble down past 45 degrees it goes away, but any straighter than 45 degrees and the camera image will "buzz" every few seconds. I have been watching...

    Camera issue while flying in sport mode.

    So I received my Mavic Pro the other day and I have been flying it non stop since. I have noticed though that if I put it in sport mode and pin the stick forward every few seconds the camera will vibrate rapidly and then stop. It only happens when in sport mode travelling at full speed. The...
