Problem Solved!! Thanks Dragonfly1!! My brother just got a new Mavic Pro and started it up without fully scanning the device for the all the protective coverings that DJI places on its sensors. After he shut it off following his first simulator session, I noticed the coverings were still on the forward sensors and removed them for him. Once he restarted it, he immediately began receiving "Forward Vision Sensor Calibration Errors" and the drone became inoperable. So we recalibrated the sensors via DJI Assistant 2. When he restarted it, the Mavic started throwing the same errors. He started to really get pissed, acting like the world was gonna end, and got on the phone to call DJI. I figured their was a rational or maybe even simple fix, so I got on this forum and saw Dragonfly1's solution and before my brother could even get someone on the phone from DJI I had his Mavic flying without any flaws. I realized that we had the drone sitting on our hard wood floors, facing the same direction, and in low lighting the entire time. I took his Mavic outside, placed it on concrete facing a different direction, and it immediately worked. Sometimes the simple solutions make all the difference in the world.
