    Jello Video When Drone is Still

    Hi all, New Mavic owner here. Searched the forum and haven't seen a solution to jello with the drone LANDED and props OFF. Heres a sample: As you can see, there are severe stabilization issues even when the drone is not in flight with the props off, resting on the ground, minimal to no wind...

    What Firmware are You Flying

    What firmware are you currently flying on or last used? Any issues? I am on v01.04.0000 Once in a while I will get the gimbal "freakout" while in mid air. I usually land, turn Mavic off and back on, and everything is fine again.

    Gimbal Drift AND Panorama Failures (Android/Google Pixel 2)

    Hey fam, looking for some help. I have done the IMU, Compass, and Gimbal calibrations in different orders a multitude of times indoors and out and I still have massive gimbal horizon drift.

    So I just replaced my vibration plate (broken rubber band) and camera with gimbal (broken camera/strip). After installing both the new parts, I took it out to try it out.

    Mavic Pro Platinum gimbal tilt screeching sound, is this normal?

    My Mavic Pro Platinum is making this strange screeching sound when it is tilted 90°. It doesn't happen on each tilt as you can see. Would be great if someone could confirm this. Thanks! *The beeping sound is from the controller, I had the gimbal up/down tilt set to the 5D button.

    Hello, as a noob, i powered on the Mavic Pro without removing the gimbal lock but i realized it soon enough, so during the startup sequence i quickly lifted the drone and removed it, the gimbal did its usual mumbo jumbo and aligned properly. I tried it afterwards and it seems fine, but i have...

    I have been flying the Mavic exactly a year now. Never had any major issues until just recently. The gimbal camera reset issue I have noticed a lot of people with the same issue and hope that there is a solution already or one not far away. My DJI Mavic Pro on almost every flight now has a...

    Gimbal issue

    Please help! My MPs Gimbal does not respond to the Gimbal Dial. I have done the IMU and all the Gimbal calibrations but the gimbal keeps the camera frozen straight ahaed. I do have a second MP that runs without an issue on the same RC, so it cannot be the Gimbal Dial. Any idea?

    Gimbal overload

    So, I received my Mavic Wednesday night. So today was the only real flight I've had, it's dark when I get home. Anyway, I did take it up in my yard; not high but just to check it out. It drifted and fell, again not high but enough to out it in gimbal overload. Today I took it out for about 20...

    Gimbal Roll (Image Not Level) When Flying Left or Right

    I recently upgraded my Mavic to 1.04.0000 and have been testing the new and old flight modes. One difference (I think) I noticed was that the image was not staying level when pushing the right stick left or right. If I flew to the left (pushed the right stick left), the horizon would become...
