Have a Mavic Pro and can't get it to calibrate. Even using Assistant program...

Hi, can you be a bit more specific on what you are trying to calibrate, then perhaps knowledgable members will be able to help out.
Is it IMU, Compass, Gimble or Camera Lens you're trying to calibrate? Have you studied the manual for advice?
Please let us know exact problem.

Yes, it would be helpful if you could elaborate a bit more as RonW mentioned.

I’m going to take a quick stab in the dark, and assume you’re talking about calibrating your Compass.

If not, this will make for a good DJI pilot war story ?

Last year, right after Christmas, I was flying my Mavic 2 zoom. The problem was, for the life of me, I could not figure out why I was getting compass calibration errors .

This went on for about an hour until, for some reason, I decided to take off my Apple Watch. I had gotten a new band for Christmas and with all of the gyrations with the Mavic, it was just one less thing on my wrist that I needed.

Well, low and behold the Compass calibrated flawlessly! So, I got to thinking…

As it turns out, the watch band that I had got for Christmas was the stainless steel Melanese loop. Ferrous metal and compass calibration do not mix!

So the moral of the story is if you have a metal watch band on and you’re trying to calibrate your Mavic drone, take off your watch and I’ll bet your problems will disappear!

Lesson learned ?
