Keep us updated when you get it back! I'd be interested to hear if it's fixed so I can follow suit :)

Haha not a problem, I had to go back and check to see what people have mentioned trying so far...it can become difficult to remember sometimes. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

Sounds like we have the same problem. I'll have to eventually send it in as well. Issue is that compass calibration never even completes for me. Kermit, does compass calibration pass for you? You mentioned trying 20-30 times, has it always resulted in fast red blinking?

I thought this was the case. I don't know exactly which magnetometer IC is used, but it's probably something similar to what's in your typical smartphone. I thought that the calibration was for microadjustments due to intrinsic magnetic fields resulting from the sensor construction, metals...

Kermit only asked whether it can fly, and yes, technically it can. Should you fly it out of the box without compass calibration? Probably not. I can't manage to do it due to hardware problems but it does fly nonetheless. According to the manual, pg. 50, "Only calibrate the compass when the DJI...

Yes, since technically it was calibrated at the factory initially. I read conflicting reports saying to only calibrate the compass when the app tells you to do so, but I feel like it should be calibrated out of the box since you don't know if the package has passed through any magnetic...

No, not wearing anything metallic. I'm starting to wonder whether it's related to this thread at all. I haven't flown this in sport mode or experienced compass errors during flight, just unable to pass calibration out of the box. Just wondering what will happen if it tries to TBE then falls over...

I have the same issue! However, when I lift the Mavic off the ground, Compass2 starts displaying green values...strange. When I rotate the Mavic vertical as done in the 2nd step of the compass calibration, I get the following shown in the screenshot. Is this supposed to happen? I can never pass...

I read a little about degaussing but I'd rather not as it may alter the magnetic pole alignment of other metallic objects within the quad or damage the sensor, who knows. It is flying ok for now so I will be be careful with where this flies and try to send it in for service after the trip.

So far, I've tried the DJI Go and DJI Go 4.0 apps on an iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, and iPad Air 2 and they all exhibit the same error. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Hi, I am having an issue where the compass on my Mavic cannot calibrate anywhere I've tried. I've been out in a back yard, an open soccer field, etc. The thing just refuses to calibrate. Yes, I have read the compass calibration guide. I've attached a few photos showing what I'm seeing. The...
