I have a new Mavic 2 Pro that I'm trying to fly in my backyard but I have no forward/backward control when I take off. I'm not used to flying remote controlled devices that are heavily reliant on automation, but I didn't expect to not have full control over the drone. I assume this issue has something to do with the obstacle avoidance system, and I tried to disable it but still don't have control. I can take off, move the drone up and down, left and right, but I get the message "Braking Now! Return sticks to midpoints first". I try and land it, which works, but it tries to take off again and I have to do the emergency shutdown otherwise it'll keep popping back up. I've successfully calibrated the vision system, the compass, the accelerometer and the controller but the issue persists. I haven't yet attempted to fly in a completely open space, but even so that's not the sort of flying I'm looking to do. So even if it does work in an open space, the sort of flying I'll mostly be doing is in tight spaces.
Is there any way to completely disable the obstacle avoidance system and have full manual control over the drone? Is it possible this is an issue with something else?
