Wrong direction, not leveled+++

I'm having some problems with my mavic pro.

If I pull the right stick down the drone does not go straight backwards. It goes about 45 degrees off course.

If I fly full speed forward the drone does not stay leveled. I would say it's about 10 degrees tilted.

And sometimes it keeps drifting or rotating when I let go of the sticks.

Anyone think this is solvable by doing some kind of calibration or sw update?

Tried a calibration that I found in the menu and also the one where I have to spin the drone by hand. Still same problem.

In addition to this I feel I sometimes get too many error messages. Lost GPS signal and more. But the messages disappear quickly.

Any tips before I return it to the store?
 
I would definately return it to the store and expalin exactly what you have said here, to the store assistant.

You could return it to the store, or you could try the full set of IMU, compass and stick calibrations as described in the manual. If the aircraft is tilted in forward flight then it is either compensating for a cross-wind (real or imaginary) causing a discrepancy between heading and track, it is receiving aileron input, or it has one or more damaged props.
