After about 10 days of P3P ownership, my nightmare just came true. Took off from backyard and climbed to about to 130 ft. While yawing the aircraft to level the horizon, it started spinning furiously and crashed into my neighbor's backyard. The shell is pretty beat up, propellers broke, camera flew off the gimbal into a bush, gimbal detached from the aircraft, etc.
These all happened within 50 seconds of flight time. Latest firmware and DJI Go app on iPhone 6. However, it wasn't the first time flying with the latest firmware. It looked like something malfunctioned pretty hard.
Now dealing with DJI support is going to my next nightmare. Already opened up a case with an RMA. I was told the turnaround time was 4-6 weeks.
I have the flight record from DJI Go. Unfortunately, I didn't even get a chance to start video recording yet when it fell from the sky and video cache was off. I saw FPV action right on the screen and it was so horrifying. What else can I retrieve from the aircraft before shipping to them?
