No, it doesn't. Not unless VPS detects you are at 0ft above yourself. You have to be on flat ground Only CSC stops the motors.Thanks. A full left stick down stops the motors. Surely that's an impact with something hard which would not be too good.

Left stick down is the standard method of descending and will not stop the motors until the IMU detects that the Phantom has landed (no descent and stable with left stick down for 3 seconds)Sorry to disagree, but I have just tried it. If I hold the left stick down the motors stop and if I push the stick up the motors do not start again.
Dig is correct. Holding the left stick down will stop the motors after the aircraft senses that the bird has stopped moving for 3 seconds (I.e. It's on the ground and can't go any lower. While in the air, the bird will continue to scene until the above condition is met. Only csc will immediately stop the motors regardless of her the bird is. In either case, moving the left stick back up will not restart the motors, have to do the 'down and in' with both sticks to restart.
I think the answer depends on some additional details, what's the emergency!?
I think in almost all case, providing your clear between the Phantom and the ground, it's left stick down and just land.
- Low battery warning?
- Phantom is flying out of control because of some guidance system problem?
- Physical damage happened in flight?
If you cannot just come straight down (over water for example), attempt to get over a place where you can come straight down.
Or maybe "Return to home" would be sufficient, it really depends.
I just want to clarify - So if I am airborne a left full down will slow or stop motors and then pushing it up will restart the motors. Is this correct? I don't understand the word scene in the general context.
Yes it does IF the bird has landed. Whether landing on the ground or hand-catching, that's the standard way to shut down the motors AFTER landing.Thanks. A full left stick down stops the motors. Surely that's an impact with something hard which would not be too good.
Yes, but your bird was already on the ground, wasn't it? There's no need to test the theory when the bird's on the ground. It's the way most pilots shut down after landing so we already know it shuts down then.Sorry to disagree, but I have just tried it. If I hold the left stick down the motors stop and if I push the stick up the motors do not start again.
