Hello good people,
I have something of a 'newbie' question...I have about 5 hours flying with the Phantom 2 so I'm getting the hang of it.
Yesterday however I was doing a quick descent from about 100 feet. I pulled the left stick fully back, probably about 7 seconds. When I let go and stick was centred the thing continued to fall. I pushed up and only after about 5 seconds (which seemed a lifetime) did the thing respond and start to rise again but not before touching the ground very slightly. My question is, did I cut the motors off by holding the left stick back for more than 3 seconds? this is the way I normally cut off when I catch the drone in my hand. I did not think that doing this would cut the thing off in flight, the various sensors etc kicking in to tell the drone it is at high altitude in the air. Can some kind person enlighten me as I am struggling to find info about this in the DJI literature.
Thanks,
