I might be missing some pertinent info describing this, so please let me know if you need more details.
I am flying my P2 with H3-3D, gains are stock except I am running at 200/200 on the attitude rather than 240/240.
Flight mode was in GPS mode.
Several times yesterday in low to mod winds 5-10 mph, but sometimes flat, as I came in to land the P2 would start to drop but recover. I was descending around .3 - .5 meters per second, what I think is not an extreme descent rate. This happened twice at an altitude of about 10 - 12 meters. First time, the bottom dropped out, I released the sticks and the P2 recovered. Second time, same thing, but the P2 didn't recover fast enough and had a hard landing. No damage incurred except a chipped prop.
What can I do to determine the cause of this and avoid it in the future.
as a side note, I have about 4 - 6 hours of flight experience on this none of which are in ATTI mode.
Thanks in advance,
Eric
