No way to know for sure, but there is hope for now with the re-release of a Phantom to the consumer market. It doesnt seem to be over yet, but we will see. My prediction for the next Mavic Pro series drone is that it will be slightly larger again, as we got from M1 to M2. Cant imagine otherwise...

The Inspire 2/X7 is anything but Pro-Sumer. I find it intersting the way these categorizations come about, and subsequently change. People used to call the P4P the “best pro-sumer” drone available. Oddly enough, the second the M2 was released, that became the best “pro-sumer” drone (by DJIs...

I like and continue to browse this forum even though im currently flying I2 and M2 almost exclusively now, with some phantom action here and there (p4pO). I started here and I think this is generally a more mature group of individuals. I stay off the mavic forums [emoji56].

This has been well covered by myself and a few others here with repeated attempts to send these yaw drifting units in. DJI refuses to recognize the problem. Even when presented with flight data that clearly shows the issue, they still cant fix it. Edit: I should note that after three attempts...

The hot glue holds the wires in place and protects the integrity of the solder joints. Its necessary

Dont relenquish your V1. I wish I hadnt. Im on my third (well technically its now on its way back again) P4P V2. Theyve all done exactly what the OP described, except about 25-30 degrees per minute.

You will be most pleased with the stability of the M2. The P4P is a tad sharper, but I have over 300 flights on an M2P with zero complaints.

No sweat. Sorry if I seem irritated, I am, but not with anyone here. This issue has plagued me since 9/19/18 when I “upgraded” from the V1 to V2 and I want a solution for myself and others. My V2 is going back for the 4th time on Monday. Ill report back with what I can.

In post 26 I described stationary autonomic movement to the LEFT OR RIGHT could be observed I also described that this movement causes trajectory issues when the drone is in motion. I never said anything about the drone in the video, I just responded to the title (as I do every time I see V2...

Makes sense. My computer is a 2015 Viao hot-rodded with an SSD and running the version you described. Good find.

This is exactly what I was explaining, maybe not as eloquently. How can the heading be straight and the center reticle be locked if the drone is strafing left and not yawing? Its a hardware issue.

You still miss the point entirely, sir. We arent grumbling about the physical/lateral movement of the drone! This behavior CAN BE OBSERVED WITHOUT FORWARD MOVEMENT. Park the P4P V2 somewhere in the air and point it North. Set the remote down. The drone will end up pointing 40-60 degrees either...

This is not a wind issue, period. The “stability” of the Phantom is not being brought into play. The P4P V2 can still fight a 20mph wind while stationary (position-wise) as it yaw drifts either left or right autonomically. It will also yaw drift ten feet off the ground in a warehouse with closed...

Sar104 (who has posted in this thread) and BudWalker. See post 6 I already flew the new Phantom and its yaw drift was observed less than 15secs into the first flight. I, like you, regret ever getting rid of my V1 for this machine.

Wish that were it. Flight data shows the real issues. Thanks.
