Lost Forward and Backward on Control Sticks

[Case29247]

I had a strange experience out flying my P2 just now. All was normal for a few minutes, but then the controls started acting strangely.

The flight started normally for a minute or three. Up and down and yaw worked fine. Right and left worked fine. But after a short time of normal forward and backward, any forward and backward on the sticks produced right and left on the P2 instead of forward and backward. I had no forward and backward. The P2 was only a few dozen feet away, so I know I wasn't confused about orientation. I flew several minutes close-in observing the weird behavior.

Then I guided the bird home without forward and backward and landed. I didn't shut down the bird, but I cycled the power to the controller (the standard white controller that comes in the kit), and then flew again. The controls returned to normal. I tested it close-in for a couple of minutes and then resumed flying around for about ten minutes...all seemed okay. But it leaves me wondering what is going on.

Any ideas?

That is weird,
Are you running naza or phantom mode?
I would recalibrate remote ( Tx ) in RC assistant
( calibrates tx )
Then do a calibration on radio ( tx ) in assistant as well
( calibrates tx to phantom )
Also check tx batteries, as well as s1/s2 switches for possible short?

Sounds almost like it went into IOC , without notice? But could be wrong.

Take care, keep us in the loop, Fly safe!
