Hello,

I recently lost control of my Mavic Air. Before the flight i did an DJI go 4 app update. Checked the app if there were any problems with the aircraft, there weren't. After some time i flew 2-3 meters from a wall and suddenly it was flying slowly in the direction of the wall (sideways). I tried steering the other way and press the pause button but nothing happened. The aircraft kept flying in the direction of the wall (with the prop guards on), so nothing was damaged until i took the aircraft in my hand and placed it 1 meter away from the wall where it kept hovering in place. Note that there was some wind (~ 20km/h).


This scared me a bit and i want to do some research or have some answers before i fly again in my garden.

This is the flight record of that flight.

note: the front 2 LEDS were solid green, i did not activate gesture control at any time. I was sitting down holding the controller when it happened.
