Hi All,
I was flying my Phantom yesterday, it was a nice and smooth flight, then I landed it and changed battery, when I took off again it started to spin and go up very fast, so I had to hold the left joystick all the way to the right to stop it from spinning and with difficulty I brought it down and kind of crash landed it.
I tried it again and the same thing happened, it started to spin and drift to the side and very fast flew away towards the bush, I almost lost it in the bush a few hundred meters away when I stopped the spinning and with difficulty and great luck I brought it back towards me and crash landed it again.
I took it back home and connected it to the software, it said no calibration is needed but I did it anyway and I also did a receiver and transmeter calibration but that made things even worse.
Now it couldn't even communicate between transmetter and receiver so I did the receiver calibration again now I COULD STASRT the motors which I couldn't do it after first calibration (first time I didn't do it properly). I did a test flight inside my house and was okay, no more spinning but now every time I land and try to restart I cannot start the motors until connect to the software and recalibrate the receiver.
An idea what is wrong please? Why yesterday after a nice flight it started spinning away and why after my receiver and transmetter calibration it is not holding the calibration and can not communicate with each other?
Do I have to reset my whole Phantom again perhaps to the factory defult and if so how
By the way what happens if the battery is low or runs out? Would it crash, go away or comes back home before it is dead?
How can check if the battery is okay or full?
Many thanks in advance
Mitchell
