Hello. I have weird problem with my Mavic 2 Pro smart (regular one) controller. Every so, randomly based, when powering up controller it starts beeping and it shows "Stick Error". It continues to beep untill I fiddle with sticks.
As advised I tried to calibrate it. After entering calibration mode, I can see that right stick shows small percentage in either up or down axis. Never both.
So when I move it up or down and release it doesn't go to zero, it stays at 5-25%.
Weird part: If I dont touch right stick, when moving left stick up or down, up and down values on right stick also changes from 5 to approx 50%.
What could be the reason for this behavior?
How come that moving left stick also changes value on right stick? When it does this, calibrating doesnt help.
Resime:
- Controller starts beeping when firing up in like 3 of 10 flights.
- After beeping stops, I can launch but, drone drifts forward or backward, depends on my controller mood, when both sticks are up.
- Calibrating doesnt help
- It might happen when controller is both cold started or after it heats up when internal fan starts.
- It does this no matter of outdoor temp, between 15 and 30 temp Celsius
Main problem:
- I would like to send controller to testing and to get replacement because drifting is not acceptable. But in order to do so I would need to wait whole month because our dealer in Croatia (Aviteh) doesn't offer service for it, so controller must be sent somewhere in the EU, test it and send replacement unit - if they also experience such behavior. Which I doubt they would because it happens randomly. Also our drone dealer dont offer replacement controller unit while Im waiting which is bad for my business because my drone is useless without controller.
Drone is basically new, purchased on end July, never dropped controller, never abused it, it never got wet or something. I had less than 50 flights with it, all under perfect dry conditions. Both drone and controllers were securely stored in Manfrotto photo bag when not in use.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Regards
