    Startup chime different

    Yeah it is, back to normal.

    Before posting, read the manual.

    Actually I haven't stated anywhere that people should look up old posts prior (unless it's in the Google search they hopefully do), but now that you mention it, that's actually a good idea too.

    Before posting, read the manual.

    I certainly wouldn't say it is pointless at all. Like I stated, there are many who post questions here, where the answer lies in the manual. I also stated in other terms that by reading the manual, newcomers would most likely have more of an understanding of the Mavic; they would benefit from...

    Before posting, read the manual.

    I agree with all the above; if you have done the common sense things (manual, google, YouTube vids etc) and still cannot find an answer, then absolutely ask away. And another special mention to Msinger. Msinger helped me out a couple of times too when I was a bit of a rookie, so a massive...

    Exactly this.

    Before posting, read the manual.

    I'm not having a go at anyone (it would make me a hypocrite), but I'm seeing so many posts of people crashing but not knowing why, asking what buttons / certain flight settings do, asking how to fly the Mavic... ....and the common theme is many newcomers simply not reading the manual. I cannot...

    Precision landing not saved

    -turn on controller -turn on Mavic. -wait for connection. -connect phone and go to App -change settings as you need To save settings, turn off Mavic first.

    Esc tone out of sync.

    I started a thread on the same thing about a week ago, there are quite a lot of us who have the same problem. Even though it's annoying, it doesn't seem to have an impact on the flying, and that's the main thing. Hopefully they address the tone on the next firmware update.

    Mavic Drifting - Round 2

    Best of luck with this. I'd try the firmware downgrade and see how you go. Just remember to restart after he refresh, IMU, each step etc.

    Mavic Drifting - Round 2

    Have you tried downgrading to the previous firmware?

    Mavic Drifting - Round 2

    Without sounding condescending, you absolutely sure it's not wind? Also remember that at an altitude of 15m or below, drift can be common because the VPS is used to control hover etc. If flying over something with a common pattern (water, well maintained grass etc) at 15m or below, then drift...

    Mavic Drifting - Round 2

    Not sure. The same goes with the startup "chime" of the Mavic. Since the latest firmware, mine doesn't do the echo effect like it used too, now it's all over the place. Like the drift issue, I know of many who have the problem, many who don't.

    Yaw drift since firmware update?

    I've posted on another thread too, but my solution was this: 1. Refresh firmware and reset default settings. Restart drone. 2. Calibrate IMU while drone is cold, on a perfectly level surface. Restart. 3. Calibrate compass away from all interference (including the controller). Restart. Worked...

    Mavic Drifting - Round 2

    Hey guys, thanks heaps for the help. So this is what I did and since then, I've had no dramas: 1. Refresh firmware (still current one) and reset default settings 2. Restart and then calibrate IMU on level surface (making sure the drone is cold) 3. Restart, then calibrate the compass Took it...
