Got it thanks

The S1 switch was up after I calibrated. However after reading and viewing some more videos, I DO remember that I calibrated ON the back of my metal tailgate of my truck and the calibration was not working. I thought I finally got it to calibrate but maybe I didn't. Would a bad calibration cause...

Had 10 GPS satellites and home was recorded prior to flight. Phantoms are "classic" for fly aways as I have read everywhere and with DJI not admitting there is still a problem is bad customer service. It happened again a few days ago, but I had it tethered. This bird is for sale. I'm buying a...

Definitely looking at the Scout X4. My phantom Vision Plus had TWO fly aways within one week. One crashed in a bean field and the other just happened today. I've done EVERYTHING required to try and fly this phantom but I can tell you that I'm selling it and looking at the Scout X4. Just bought...

Thanks! Yeah, the only thing I was scared of was what if it slammed into a car, house or something else! :shock: I'm just glad I helped the farmer cut his beans!

Gentlemen. Thanks for all of the advise. I tethered the bird today and the 20 minute flight was flawless. I WAS able to get the crash video. The link is below. It's funny how you "thought" things happened. :D I thought I had it hovering in one spot for 10-20 seconds. I actually lost controls...

Thank you 750r!!!! That worked! I will post the video crash shortly!

No I was not descending. It was hovering for 10 seconds. Then lost signal. I have 300mb on the crash video, but it is corrupt. Does anyone know of software that will repair this? I don't mind paying for it and if fixed, I can show the video

Yes sir. Home point was recorded prior to flight. What shocked me the most was that it took off at "full speed" at a 45 degree angle downwards like a missile. I did all the calibrations and checked for new firmware (there was none). I am a beginner with these and was really going to get into...

I was bringing it back to land it and I was showing my friend the speed. I stopped it right above us and it hovered for about 10 seconds and then it took off. I did not see that thread, I will take a look at it.

Thanks! I will check all updates and maybe even tie the bird down lol

Well that's even worse then because I have no idea why now. Any other ideas?

Hello all, yesterday I took my Phantom Vision Plus 2 out to a friends farm to take some areal photos for them. This was my 7th flight. I did the calibration before flight and had 10 GPS locks before flight. We launched it about 10 ft away from his cattle fence and I stood there the whole time...
