I took my Mavic Pro out to fly yesterday and noticed the left antenna on the RC was floppy. It won't remain in the vertical position like the right antenna. I have no idea what happened since my last flight when it was fine. I made a little paper wedge to keep it vertical during the flight but that's a pain. I bought the Mavic Pro new in August so I assume it's still on warranty. Do you guys think its something DJI would replace on warranty? I've read numerous posts stating antenna position is important during flights. I also assume it will just get worse too.
 
If your out of warranty try this solution from or own @msinger ... worked for me.
 
Thanks guys, I'll start with the DJI warranty route. By the second response it appears I'm not the lone ranger with this issue...maybe even a common problem if someone designed a fix for it.
 
You could go the DJI service route
and no slight to anyone that reads my post ..... Good Luck

How about you try a small rubber band
Or
Get a piece of string and tigh it tight around the bass see if that won’t tighten it up.!
Now I might be talking out my arse here
If I’m wrong I’m sure I will be corrected

The left side has little effect on signal/connection it the right side
That everything I read is were they install boosters for distances and connection

..... cR
 
I just tried the universal fix...duct tape, lol. It worked great. Just a small little piece folded over and the antenna stayed where it was supposed to. I'm still going to contact DJI, but this will work fine if that falls through.
