Firstly, I apologize for not getting a screenshot, so I'll try to describe in detail what occurred.
Setup:
Phantom 3 Professional
IPad Air 2
Battery fully charged just prior to flying
All parameters within (what I would call normal) range (i.e. strong RC signal, strong HD feed)
Location - Beach area, no houses within 2 miles, no cell phone towers within 8-10 miles
Situation:
After takeoff and 1 minute wait and review of parameters (compass values, satellite number, HD signal and RC signal) I flew straight out and between 100 and 130 feet the DJI go app live feed went immediately black with the "DJI" Logo center screen.*
All other normal parameters were displayed across the top, Signal Strength, Flight Mode ("Safe to Fly", P-GPS), HD signal (100%)). There was no video breakup or decreasing HD signal.
The odd part was the immediate loss and the "DJI" logo, I have lost video feed before but it was gradual, with the video breaking up and then going away coupled with a "weak transmission signal warning".
When reviewing the video in the DJI Go App (recorded from feed), it froze for 2-3 seconds, then went black.
Remedy:
Landed. Verified all flight parameters. Verified HD channel set to "Auto". Restarted DJI Go and aircraft. All was well afterwards.
Question:
Has anyone seen this before? My concern is the live feed went immediately black with the "DJI" Logo center screen.
If it occurs again, I will take a screenshot and post.
I haven't review the video on the SD card yet, but I have a terribly nagging feeling that this issue did not originate in the DJI Go App, but in the camera or wiring associated with the hardware.
Any insight is appreciated.
