Hello I was flying the Mavic and it seems to descend a little while it stops! Is this common? Is this an issue?

Can I have a setting adjusted?
 
Title: descent

How much is "a little"? Many rotor-based aircraft will experience a difference in thrust between forward flight and hovering. You get more thrust with fresh air than when sitting on the turbulent downwash in a hover. Helicopter pilots manually correct for it by giving a little boost as they come to a stop. The Mavic does also but maybe not quick enough or hard enough.
