My mavic mini constantly does 90 degree spin to the right side and then continues in original direction!

[AboriginalBrotherhood1162]

Hi, could someone please help me with this problem. My mini constantly does 90 degree spin to the right side as if 1 of the motors momentarily stops for a split second. This happens usually 3times consecutive and then I slow down to a very low speed to bring it home safely. Is it possible that the left front motor malfunctions for a split second and causes this 90 degree spin. No message pops up on my fly app to show a possible reason for this spin in mid flight.

have you tried a stick calibration ,or it could be an ESC issue ,did you have care refresh how long has it been happening ,and has it been in a crash if you post the logs then one of our experts will be able to help you diagnose the issue

Did it stay level whilst turning? Ditto the logs .DAT & .txt are needed

Ok , I will start to follow the instructions from the members and thank-you very much. I don't have care refresh but I do have that on my new drone that I bought when this problem started happening because I'm really not too comfortable flying the Drone and it dropping out of the sky.

Yes I did the stick Callibration and tried the controller with my other mini and all is calibrated. Now I will follow instructions of PF.

A couple of times it dropped about 15 to 20 feet , and other times it stayed at the same altitude. I just learned tonight from your help how to get the logs and should be posting them for you guys shortly....

Losing height is not what I meant, if one motor slows down significantly lift is lost from that motor and that corner of the drone would drop so the drone would 'tip'.
Anyway the logs may reveal all.

I am learning how to get the flight logs and then verify the txt. and dat. files so I can post them for some specialist s help to understand the issue and find a best solution. It takes me a while to get all this done from lack of experience.thanks for your patience and I am working hard at it.
