I believe your assessment is what happened. I will be careful to ensure that I only use fully charged batteries and that they are at least 20 C. Thank you for such a complete assessment.

It was mid 50's F but the wind was gusting a bit to maybe 20 MPH. I was flying with just a long sleeve shirt on, so not too cold. ome of my ideas is that the P3P had to fight some wind to stay on course and that created some sort of power spike which put the P3P in landing mode.

Thanks John, I am getting the idea, that the intelligent battery needs to be handled intelligently. That must be why it's called an intelligent battery.

Yes same battery, but I landed and didn't even shut down. I've done this before, but it now seems like its almost a must to change the battery even when doing short (2-3 minute) flights.

I did save the POI in Litchi, but after the P3P descended to about 38 feet I switched out of F mode and took the P3P back up and flew it from then on. I flew for another several minutes and had no more issues.

I tried to upload the CSV file, but apparently this forum does not accept csv files. Here it is as a .txt file using tabs as a delimiter. Excel will have no issue reading this

I was flying my P3p using Litchi way stations when all of a sudden the plane started to auto land. I was in f mode at the time so switched to p mode and stopped the descent and was able to fly the 500 feet back to me. Battery was freshly charged that day and I was on my second short flight...
