First crash.

[rbreban]

Nothing serious, I was depleting the battery when it got to 10% it just went auto landing fast. I tried to correct but it was too late. Maybe it was my mistake, not sure. The bird is ok. I would just like to cancel that auto land. Is it possible?

Is it advisable ?

I crashed mine today after over an hour of flying. It landed in the only puddle of water within 200 feet of my go figure. One engine was making a God awful screaming noise and still spinning when I got to it. Wiped it off, checked out the craft and back to flying she went. I was pretty impressed, scared the crap out of me for awhile.

Auto landing at critical voltage say 10% is definitely recommended. It's a safe and good practice for aircraft and others on the ground.

There is no way to cancel the auto landing when the battery is critically low. You could hold the throttle up to prevent your Phantom from landing though. Keep in mind that the battery will eventually shut off mid-flight if you continue to bypass the auto landing like this.
