Hi
i Bought my DJI Phantom last year around august from a toy store in South africa ( Durban )flight and dust hobbies .Everything worked fine at first i was able to practice flying and landing it . I even tried the fly home which allows the phantom to fly back to me and every thing worked fine , I then bought the gimble zenmus for the go pro , i had it fitted where i bought my phantom with the FPV transmitter, 1stly everything looked fine until one day i was flying it , every time i let go of the lever on the transmitter the phantom wouldn't stop but it would go further away regardless that it was on GPS mode it would want to fly away and i had to control it by shifting the lever on the opposite direction , i took it back to them and they did a calibration on it , after that it did the same thing while i was flying such that which ever direction i tried to shift the lever to , it still went on it own direction, i then switch of the transmitter so to activate the fly back home but instead it went down and crushed ,i managed to recover it but my gimble was faulty it was vibrating, i took back to them for check up they fixed the gimble and again after weeks it did the safe thing it flew away without responding to the transmitter and when i switch off the transmitter it would then fly side ways and crush down, now it the 2nd time doing this to me and breaking my gimble , i need to know what causes this problem? how can i resolve it coz now am tired of paying for these repairs when i know very well that i didn't crush it and am now afraid to fly it since it mate go for good
