I bought a brand new Mavic Air 2. Every time I go to fly when I start the controller it's beeping and needs to be calibrated. Surely this isn't normal?
.... move the sticks around and then turn it back on and problem usually solved....
.... calibration did not help ....
Agreed. And there is a lot of surface area around the base of the sticks to allow bits of dust and debris to get into the works, so something to keep in mind. Probably an area that could use a light vacuum from time to time while moving the sticks all around.Unlike the controller of M2 which uses magnetic sensors for detecting stick positions , variable potentiometers are used in the Air 2 controller . There are electrical contacts inside the potentiometers. If some of the contacts are dirty, moving the sticks around can usually clean up the contacts but the problem will likely come back again. Just my guess.
