    My Phantom 2 Flew Away....

    The diamond was moving around A LOT. Way more than just average adjustments etc. It was completely disoriented. I always calibrate well so I know that was not the issue.

    My Phantom 2 Flew Away....

    I'm sorry I should have mentioned earlier. I immediately shut off the remote to activate RTH. The home beacon remained erratic and I never saw it again. I've had about 75 flights with this and I've never seen anything like it.

    Nah, I didn't. DJI just offered me 30% off of a Phantom 2.....It's an insult. I could see 50% off a Phantom 3 or 30% off an inspire 1 but why would I PAY them again for another phantom 2 with the same known GPS issues...

    My Phantom 2 Flew Away....

    Basically the home beacon (the diamond) on my video downlink began to change position. I was looking in my monitor at a still image of the mountains but the home beacon was moving around. I did not have visual on the craft at that point so I couldn't return to home manually either.

    Do you know how much of a discount? I'm 100% sure it was a GPS issue that caused this. Sucks so hard that they wouldn't replace it.

    My Phantom 2 Flew Away....

    I am devastated. My precious, my baby that I've worked so hard on. Fine tuning and caring for it. Just up and leaves. I had brought my drone to Tennessee for a bachelor party to get some amazing river and mountain shots. They were amazing. It just began flying away and I could no longer see it...

    will CSC cause propellers to stop in mid flight?

    This absolutely happened to me once. Left stick all the way down. Engines shut off about 100 ft up.
