    Mavic 3 Ascending when flying forward.

    Update. Flew several times yesterday and seems it’s not happening every time. I need to do some additional testing to know for sure, but I believe the issue is only in the bypass mode. After IMU and controller calibration I flew again yesterday. One time without issue the other time the issue...

    Yes still doing it. I am not sure that it is a flaw. May be part of the Mavic 3.

    I think this is because bypass is on. I would think we could tell it how high to fly above an object. The fact that a house is 130' below it should not mean that it climbs in altitude like it does. Can't help but feel I am missing something.

    Mavic 3 Ascending when flying forward.

    I have had everything from a Phantom 3 Pro to an Inspire and have never seen this. But I just got the Mavic 3 and when flying forward it ascends on its own. Even at 200+ feet and will hit the maximum altitude without in ascending yoke input. Is this because of the ability of the M3 to see...
