    Hi Edward, when I go into Calibration my left joy stick is registering Left and Right 100% but it does not register anything when pressing the joy stick Up and Down. I have not had any issues with my controller--no dropping it on the ground, no damage. Any idea what the problem is?

    Are your controller sticks screwed in properly? Do you screw and unscrew them often? It’s tough to say, but you could try asking chatGPT what it thinks. I’ve never encountered that issue.

    Due to sheer laziness on my part, I neglected anti-collision sensor calibration on all my Mavics, thinking that because I fly all my drones with the obstacle avoidance sensors deactivated, I shouldn't have to bother calibrating them. That logical presumption of mine turned out to be dead wrong because even with all the sensors always turned off my Mavic 1 Pro confounded me for months by stopping randomly during waypoint missions, often with the result that the battery came perilously close to draining low enough for the drone to force-land far from home due to battery charge levels dropping below that critical 10% level. By finally biting the bullet and laboriously calibrating the anti-collision sensors on my DJI drones, the stuttering stop-and-go flight behavior of my Mavic 1 Pro ceased immediately and the drone has flown smooth as silk ever since, while also filming sharply focused footage that was inconsistent at best before the obstacle sensor calibration I belatedly carried out. I simply had no idea that failure to calibrate obstacle avoidance sensors is ESSENTIAL regardless of whether those sensors are toggled on or off during flight. In trying to calibrate the sensors on my Mavic 2 Pro for the first time, the main problem I have encountered is that after completing the calibration of all sensors front, back, and sides, the calculation phase of the process remains stuck at the 0% stage, and does not budge thereafter. I'll give it another shot but now that I know how absolutely VITAL the calibration of obstacle avoidance sensors is to preventing the loss of the drone, I won't dare fly my Mavic 2 Pro until I succeed in this calibration process and see that calculation indicator scrolls up to the full 100% completion status before I power off the drone and disconnect it.

    @@edwardfigura Yes I finally did calibrate my Mavic 2 Pro. Turns out that I was using the wrong version of DJI Assistant 2. The version of DJI Assistant 2 that works with the Mavic 1 Pro will NOT work in calibrating the Mavic 2 Pro because the Mavic 2 Pro MUST be calibrated with the DJI Assistant 2 FOR MAVICS, which is different from the "regular" DJI Assistant 2 that ironically works for the Mavic 1 Prro but NOT the Mavic 2 Pro. This peculiarity is not specifically mentioned in any of DJI's user notes on the DJI Assistant 2, and I stumbled on it after a long and baffling trial-and-error episode a while back.

  • @edwardfigura
    @edwardfigura11 ай бұрын

    Mavic 2 Pro will often ask for recalibration, especially if you’re in an area with a lot of magnetic interference. Make sure you are away from metal, including a parking lot full of cars. Also make sure you are not in the middle of a city with sky scrapers surrounding you. All these things will make it very difficult for Mavic 2 to calibrate. Not sure what you mean by it quit in flight, can you elaborate?

    As good as the Mavic 2 Pro is, it still has hardware issues, especially the batteries. Mavic 2 batteries tend to easily over heat if you plug them in to charge right after a flight. In this instance, this battery has been used so many times that it has lost the ability to calculate the estimated energy remaining, so it stopped displaying the time! I didn’t block it myself in post if that’s what you were wondering :) The Mavic 3 doesn’t have this issue because the batteries are much more durable and reliable.

    it calibrates just fine with the cable plug in placement. The only issue should be if you dont fold the arms in as the arms, or the props if not removed, may get in the line of sight of the sensor, as long as they are folded in, just up to the cable, it works perfectly fine. Now once you are done with the complete screen follow through, if like me, you get lucky and get a sensor calibration issue, even though every screen was done corrrectly

    To be safe, always choose 5600 white balance. That is the standard daylight balance, which works in pretty much all outdoor settings. For indoor shooting, 5600 is also recommended but at that point you need to make sure that your image is not too cold or too warm. That is when I would start tweaking the white balance manually.
