Altitude drop

[Jchlkw]

Forgive me for another newbie question lol.
Had my p4p+ out today winds about 7 miles temp 35 ish. i was hovering about 90 feet in air abt 60 feet out when my bird suddenly dropped maybe 5 ft straight down and continued hovered. Now my question is that normal? like a plane hits a down draft or what not. I ask because i just did a firmware update and have only had it up minimal times. Other then drop all was well i continued to fly no problems.

No .. it's not normal and if it was due to a downdraft you would expect the Phantom to regain its original altitude.
Perhaps looking at the flight data would help solve the mystery?

Go to DJI Flight Log Viewer
Follow the instructions there to upload your flight record from your phone or tablet.
Come back and post a link to the report it provides

Thanks i thought it was normal because air is not always smooth. Didn't even think of flight data. the newbie in me lol. That will defiantly relaxe my mind. Thanks again so glad i joined this forum
