On Friday I was attempting to fly my P3A at a friends house. The backyard was fenced with a 4' high wrought iron fence. The P3A was appx 30-40 feef away from the fence, about 10' from my pickup and the P3A was setting on the driveway. I went through my normal process of getting everything ready. The DJI Go app gave me a safe to fly. I calibrated the compass. Checked sensor readings - compass reading was registering 1500+ and I had 15-17 satellites - fired up the P3A - it launched and at about 12' head right for the wrought iron fence - ran into a small tree, bounced off my pickup and ended up in the grass upside-down. The battery had popped out as well. I re-assembled everything. Started the the aircraft - checked compass sensors and they were reading 5000+. Shut everything off and packed up. Back at the house I tried to down load the flight log to my laptop and found the files were .dat format - and could not open any flight log files. Two questions:
What in the heck happened at my friends house?
How does one open flight log files on the PC (the instructions provided by the DJI GO app say to download the flight log to your laptop) if they are a .dat format?
By the way when i got back home i fired up the P3A and the little dumpling worked just fine.
