Received my new Mavic Pro last week and took it for a few test flights - loved it. All working well, RTH, flight controls, gimbal, camera, etc.
Whilst flying it on Saturday in the garden, a strong wind gust blew it into a wall whilst it was at about 1m above ground. Drone flipped over onto its back spun a few times until I managed to get to it and flipped it over and stopped the motors. Props a bit scratched and a scratch on the battery. Otherwise looked okay. Took off again and all great with one exception - forward speed very slow and maxs out at about 2m/s. Side to side tilt and speed and backward tilt and speed all normal, but forward tilt nearly negligible and therefore speed compromised. I've tried re-calibrating the Compass and IMUs - all good - but is there anything else that I can do?
Would greatly appreciate any advice!
