Drone will not fly straight and will slowly rotate while hovering

[Philipandrews]

Recently noticed that my drone has a tendency to not fly straight. I am a real estate photographer and one of the shots I’ll typically get for a video is to start close to the house and then go back and up while panning the camera. Lately when I do this instead of going straight back the drone is veering off to the left.

I’ve tried recalibrating both the drone and remote controller and nothing seems to work.

Also when the drone hovers it will slowly rotate to the left.

If I do a smart orbit the drone seems to operate normally. I’m using the smart controller v1. Guessing something is wrong with it. Any thoughts?

Try an IMU calibration

usually needs stick calibration

do you have a secondary controller? if so, try that one to find out if the IMU in the aircraft or the controller is causing your problem.

Yea I plan on trying that today.
