    How to fly Mavic Air 2 using Oculus Quest 2

    I got a new Oculus Quest 2 as a gift last week and I would like to use them to fly my drone Mavic Air 2 as a FPV headset. I think that maybe I could just mirror the mobile screen to the Oculus or something like that (I would make the Gimbal not respond to my head movements, but could be a...

    Mavic Mini 2 gimbal closeup picture

    Hi! My Mini 2 hit a telephone line and fell right after, the after-match was a broken blade, a minor crack and a gimbal loose. I already contacted DJI for reparation, but I'm curious if I can put the gimbal back in place. Digging into Google pictures and YouTube videos I couldn't find a...

    Mavic Pro 2 drifts / gimbal jolts when stopping

    Recently I have noticed my mavic pro 2 is drifting, unable to focus on an object correctly. I have also noticed that when I stop hard, the gimbal complete jolts in a way it is definitely not supposed to do. Any quick movements the camera shakes abruptly. Could this just be a lemon? It’s only...

    Mavic Mini gimbal shake

    Hi, on my new Mavic Mini the camera something like an high frequency shake when the tilt of gimball is set around 10°-12°, other angle are perfect also in fast moving footage. Changed all blades (ESC error on one rear arm after a couple of hours), shake reduce but persist. Between the critical...

    Mavic Mini strange gimbal movement

    Hello everybody. I had this strange gimbal movement (or maybe strange drone movement) when flying today. Maybe caused for cold weather? Any ideas why? Thanks :)

    Gimbal doesn't want to go all the way down

    Trying to move gimbal down to catch bicyclist and it didn't wanna go. The wind was light and I was hovering while moving the gimbal. I've flown this like 10 times now and it's the first time I've noticed it. The video cut out on my screen and looked more like mnpaslay's footage to me, but...

    IMU and Gimbal problems (calling for fellow technicians)

    Hello there, A little backstory.. I bought a Mavic Mini from a person that crashed it, with the intention of fixing it (assumed I could do it, because of the extensive experience in DIY drone world). The crash resulted in a weird gimbal behavior and inappropriately working altitude hold. After...

    Gimbal Bouncing

    Hey everyone, i’ve been having the same problem at least once in almost every flight... the gimbal starts “bouncing”, not vibrating... it literally bounces... The thing i do when this happens is using the re-center stabilizer option in gimbal settings. It helps sometimes, others not. I’m a new...

    Gimbal not sitting correctly.

    Hi guys, Ever since I’ve had my Mavic the footage just hasn’t looked right. The horizon is constantly slanted. I have followed lots of online tutorials and DJI Customer Support have been useless. I’ve tried adjusting the gimbal manually which does the trick until I pan and the gimbal seems...

    Mavic Air 2 gimbal camera flipped backward and stuck!

    So what happened was...I don’t really know, but my friend who borrowed my new Mavic Air 2 started it up in the house and apparently it went forward really fast and he ran the drone straight into the wall.
