I have found a similar thread from January there wasn't any clear answer to it so I decided that perhaps someone know something more by now.

Like in the thread-since yesterday I have noticed that my mavic is a bit titled you can see that on the picture I did NOT do any sort of calibrations as the manual states clearly only to do them when prompted.

Again I did notice that the mavic is gaining an attitude on its own and that happens on a grass area in the park. It's been gaining around 0,5 of the meter that happened few times.

It also shows a wrong height parameter in dji go app I know that it does correspond to the home point and not the actual position but after updating mi hp it's been showing -13 meters being 2 meters above the place I have updated hp which is creepy.
 
If the Mav is tilted, but maintaining its position in space, then it's fighting wind, or a breeze. The other issues you describe call for an IMU & compass calibration. Only then can you determine if the Mavic is defective or just needed to be calibrated.

I will do all calibrations and post my progress tomorrow I'm going to work can't test this out yet.
 
I have just been doing some research I have found info that the height (h) on dji go app relates to the taken off point and not actual hp so thats could be why whenever I have updated my hp it still been showing -13 meters...can someone confirm?
