I had to look cause it had been so long since I upgraded or even connected the a/c to the computer... I'm on 3.06!
I think this was the TBE/Mag.Dec. fix???
BIMFR (boy is my face red). The connectivity problem was a bad powered usb hub. Plugged into the front of the computer and it connects like love bugs. Also, I took one of my old batteries and plugged it in to test and realized that it went in and came out MUCH smoother than my newest battery (the one I was flying with). I'll bet that the battery IS the problem. I will see why it is so difficult to get in and out tomorrow. Also I checked my firmware version and am unclear what the screen means. I guess the one I care about is the "main controller" and I am at 3.04 and it says there are no new updates. Not sure were all this 3.10 and 3.08 stuff fits into the picture.
Maybe origami is not in my future.
Fool me twice....
I checked out the problem and could not duplicate it. Flew increasing height as my confidence grew, and with a different battery. (97% life left), fully charged, I took it to the woods and went up to 150 meters and hovered for a bit. I started yaw left and the motors shut down. As I was falling, I restarted the motors but it had fallen too far and hit a tree and then the ground. Broke one of the landing gear, a gimbal plate, and a prop. I think all is repairable, but I can't figure this out.
It only seems to happen at altitude, but that's where I fly.

You must have a short memory because yawing to the left is what happened the first time. But the sad fact is this time it came down.
Really Jason? Funny but I wouldn't have said that, at least until he had it flying again... I can't help laughing every time I read it. Please don't do that again. The mans bird is down and I shouldn't be laughing.
Seriously though, I wonder if something is coming loose, well... came loose as a result of the yaw. Everything wants to stay where it is and then everything is resisting the acceleration to the left. At least that's what Einstein (I think it was him) said.
Got any loose screws crchisholm? No pun intended.
Hey IflyinWY where abouts in wyoming ate ya im heading up to Cody wyoming towards the end of july any restrictions on flying around there, that you know of, sure would like to take the bird up into yellowstone but might be some restrictions in the park not sureThis thread is fun, and I'm learning sumpin too.
I feel a little bit guilty after I wrote you that is was a warning signal, and there you go. Can you take the cover off like I did and have a look inside?Fool me twice....
