MAVIC PRO - easy question.

[Byhead]

Just back from Georgia to NEBR. Test flight today and discovered
slight drift to left, very very slow, and stirring in flight again slightly.
Is it a compass (x2) issue??
Point me in the right direction please.

I would calibrate the IMU, calibrate the compass, and calibrate the controller.. Any one of those things could cause drift.

Im guessing 1500 or more. Just be careful when the signal starts to drop.

Definitely sounds like an IMU error. If your Mavic starts to drift left or right, then you should check your IMU status. If you see an error message that say do not move aircraft while Initializeing, then turn off the rc then turn off your Mavic. Restart the rc, and your Mavic, then calibrate the IMU. Make sure your Mavic is on level surface.
