Hi all,
I have read the manual, and I know that the manual says not to perform CSC (bringing both sticks down and towards the middle) mid flight because this will shut the rotors off in mid flight.
Is that really true?
This seems a little dangerous because with the phantom flying around I guess there's a chance that I may want to fly it back and to the left, as well as yaw to the right and descend at the same time...
Would that turn off the motors and lead to the aircraft falling out of the sky?
Honestly, I never use CSC except to start the propellers spinning. Every time I try to do it to turn them off when the phantom is on the ground, it just wants to tip over.
So to power down I just hold the down stick until the propellers stop. But the phantom is smart enough to know that doing that inflight will not stop the motors - In other words, as long as the phantom is still descending, just holding the down stick will not shut it off.
Does the same apply for CSC? Obviously I'm not expecting anyone to try it, but I'm just curious what peoples thoughts are on this.
Thanks!
