Hello Phantom Pilots
First of all thank you for all the advice/tips I have learned on this website over the past several weeks. I will be taking my P3A on its maiden flight this morning as soon as the fog lifts - and I have a question.
Yesterday was spent updating firmware, etc, selecting settings in the DJI Go app and all the other pre flight details. I had the P3A on my kitchen table (propellers off of course) while doing all the checks. I decided to arm the motors to make sure things worked correctly, which they did. I turned everything off for a while then decided to test the auto take off. When I pushed the button the motors fired right up and ramped up to speed and then after a couple seconds they simply shut off. Any ideas why this happened? I tried it once again a while later and it did the same thing.
Wondering if it could be a safeguard reaction possibly because it sensed it was not rising up???
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks again
