Shakes on takeoff

When I hold both sticks toward center to take off(from pad) drone rises to over 7 feet and then revs or shakes multple times before stabilizing, why?

Could these mean calibration needed?

Have you ever replaced the props? Are they original DJI blades? Are any of the blades damaged? Those are questions that come to mind.

It was the first flight, props are brand new

I’m not sure what else could be causing the problem. If you don’t have any additional accessories installed on the drone then maybe you have a hardware problem which needs service by DJI.

I will continue to troubleshoot and report back

The other option is to post about your problem on MavicPilots forum. See the link at the bottom of this forum. It is a much larger forum and has a few experts who are very skilled at troubleshooting drone problems.

Good luck.
