Hi,
I have a nearly new Phantom 2 with a 3D-HD GoPro 3+. It has around 10 flights over 2 batteries. The problem is at high battery levels (upto 70%) I experience periodic power loss, not total power loss but enough to cause the Phantom to drop to the ground - blades still turning but descent is faster than a failsafe landing. It also hits the ground rather than gently bounces with the failsafe. If, as soon as it starts dropping, I apply full throttle nothing happens until I am about 6 - 12 inches off the ground where it stops and starts rising normally again. I can then fly normally until it happens again which could be anything from 1 to 8 or so minutes later.
I have tried...
1. Latest firmware
2. Checked failsafe levels set normally
3. Checked GoPro WiFi off
4. Fully cycled batteries
Has anybody else experienced this or have any ideas what it could be?
Thanks
