Hey guys,
Had a scary incident with my phantom yesterday while flying.
I've been flying my phantom problem free for about a month now and all of a sudden yesterday my drone starts going awol.
Flying in atti with no problems at all then after about 8 min, I fly it towards myself and the controls stop working and it flies full speed over me while loosing altitude quick. I frantically try to re-gain control only to have it fly full speed the opposite direction away from me where it then thankfully crashes full speed into a tree. If I were flying any higher and that tree wasn't there, my drone would have just taken off and who knows what/who it could have hit.
Any ideas as to why this would have happened? I went through all the calibrations before flying and had only yellow flashing lights (atti mode)
After powering the phantom back up after the crash I got the solid yellow, red flashes.
Plugged it into the computer and re-calibrated everything and it seems okay now but I am scared that this could happen again...
Any ideas? I'm thinking it had some interference?
