Yes. When I'm out flying and release both stick the drone rotates slowly slowly to the left. Never seen/noticed this before.
Any of you dudes had the same issue? How did ou solve it?

Hi

I assume you have done a compass calibration, but have you tried an IMU calibration, and calibration of the RC's joysticks.

Is the Phantom up high and well clear of any steel objects?

The usual cause of slow rotating is the compass.
Have you recently changed anything on the Phantom?
Try recalibrating the compass and see if that makes any difference.
The IMU isn't likely to be a factor.

No steel objects for kilometers around. I did a calibration some two weeks ago when DJI GO urged me to do one. I calibrate when told so by the software.
But I'll try this. Thanks for input. I'll let you know how it went..

Almost always if you think the app is suggesting you should recalibrate, the correct action is to simply move away from the magnetic field it's warning you about.
The warning message is badly worded and says:
Magnetic Field Interference Move Aircraft or Calibrate
No-one seems to notice the part I underlined though.
 
Yaw drifting with hover seems to be a problem within the P4 pro line.

Mostly posts have been in regards to the Vr 2.0 and yaw drifting while hovering. My Vr does it constantly and is a hindrance. Lots of posts on this issue.

So far no update or response from DJI.
