Make sure your phone has a decent usb cable. I used the included cable when i got my mavic 2 & it has a terrible connection to my phone. The app lost connection mid maneuver & it slammed the mavic into a wall on its first flight.

I would love to know the resolution to this. I have the exact same issues after my first accident. I've already ordered a new gimbal & camera but would love to know if theres a much cheaper fix..

Yea, i never use airplane mode and have no issues. What fixed my issues was switching from the micro usb port to the full size usb port.

Yes, always ensure a perfect USB connection between your phone and remote. Ever since I switched to the bottom large port I've been doing tons of 4 battery long flights with no issues. When I first got the thing, I never expected a poorly working cord/port. I've still got to get my gimbal...

I've tried to do the IMU, no change. I can't recalibrate the Gimbal because the status is N/A & the gimbal button does not show in the menu.

Ahh, nope. Doesn't apply here. But good to know.

Tried using my personal charging cable and the drone/remote worked flawlessly for 2 hours. So clearly the issue is either that side port or their crappy short cable. Thanks everyone! Now just to get the gimbal fixed..

Yes it is, because you assume i havent been flying drones for the past 10 years or havent had other model DJI drones. Besides, no amount of training is going to prevent a controller from disconnecting. You know what they say when you assume.

Okay, I'll try using the full size usb port. Plus I'll try airplane mode. I cant disable bluetooth due to a medical device, but I'm sure bluetooth doesn't cause too much an issue. Thanks everyone who has helped so far!

Well how would you suggest fixing that? Is there a longer version of that cord or something?

I've already had the gimbal removed. If i send it in I'm going to ve paying another $300.

Well, i tested it with the phone connected and had decent luck. It did disconnect once while i was standing beside it. The phone did the reconnected usb sound so i assume the plug was acting up. But i did fly for about 15 minutes with no true issue. Now i just need suggestions on fixing the...

Well, I tested it out without the phone & it worked perfectly. Couple pics with my horrible camera. I'm going to test it again later with the phone and see what happens. Maybe it was a fluke? Maybe the sucky plug doesn't want to stay in on my large phone? I don't know.. As for the camera...

that is the camera's neutral position when holding it. If i move it or adjust it, it'll swing back into that position. Also a picture of the damage on the back arm from where it twisted beyond its limit.

When I get home I'm going to reconnect the Gimbal and try and fly the Drone without the phone. Then we'll see if it has any remote errors.
