Went to fly at RC field today. Set up as usual, DJI says aircraft ready to take off. Had 17 satellites. Took off and flew down airstrip and then returned. Looked up and saw aircraft was moving forward, but suddenly stopped. I did not stop it. Looked at screen and the (green GPS) had changed to (red COMPASS LOST leaving GPS). Looked at aircraft. It suddenly started a very fast downward spiral, and crashed hard.
I have flown many times, I never had anything like this happen. Never thought this could happen. I am still in disbelief. Of course it's badly damaged. I am a little upset. I didn't crash into anything, was flying line of site, and I sure as hell didn't fly it into the ground!
