I have read posts in dji forum and they said to go to drone settings>advanced settings and turn prop cage to OFF. Plenty have confirmed the fix worked.
I had the same issue - for no reason it just starting doing this. I would have guessed it was a hardware issue if I'd not seen your post. I tried new props - IMU calibration, Stick calibration, compass all to no avail. DJI Assistant servers were down this weekend so I tried a firmware downgrade and that resolved the issue for me. Seems that the Mavic has many software defects. The only bummer is that Saturday was the only good day to fly for the next week here and my Mavic was not working.
They might ask you to connect to the Assistant software and refresh firmware. I'd guess one of the motors has gone faulty - probably back left by look of it. Does it feel stiff at all turned by hand?
FIXED. I connected to Assistant and did a "Restore to Factory" and now its all better. i think my use of a different phone screwed things up My phone was low on battery so i installed DJI GO app on my wife's phone and used it for a flight or 2, which was fine. but i think when i switched back to MY phone, that is what caused the problem.
Hello, I wanted to know if after resetting the drone did not fail again? I apologize, I had to use a translator because I do not know English but I was the same as you with my Mavic. Thanks.

My Mavic pro was doing exactly the same thing and making that same squeaky sound. Thanks for posting the advice!

That is the Michael J. Fox mod...will be like that if you have "prop guards" set to on but don't have them installed.

it did NOT fail again after resetting.
Sometimes I got this on my Parrot Bebop 2 Drone. And I thought it may be the props. But you say you have done a reset to factory defaults... humm
How did you fix it?
Thanks for this. FYI - If you're trying to find where to download DJI assistant, go here:
