I just got a a load of errors. Out of nowhere. Just a few days after the guarantee expired. Is there a pattern here? I s there an inborn expiration? Seems like quite a few get the same problem. My MA has only been used for a few hours and never had a crash or any other incidents.

You should recalibrate the IMU, that much is clear, but that doesn't address the gimbal errors. It's as if it did suffer a crash, or the equivalent.
 
If power down and power back up doesn’t clear it, and attempted calibration fails, it is an electrical problem in the drone, most likely from a physical shock, like a crash or drop. A cable that has come loose would be where I would start.
 
Thank you. As I wrote no crashes or rough landings. I’m not allowed to recalibrate any parameters. I’ve requested a repair. Unfortunately this happened just a few days after end of guarantee.
 
My Mavic Air went past its first birthday without:
  • any offer from DJI to extend my warranty
  • any noticeable increase in errors reported (usual compass and sticks calibration are common; IMU only twice in 12 months)
Never had a heavy landing, but did have two less controlled than I wanted...
 
I would suspect that there is something a bit off with the gimbal connector.

Does the gimbal movement still work and the gimbal calibration still complete successfully?
