I'm not sure what happened today, but on two of my flights using GPS MODE the Phantom went crazy.
I got really good GPS before I started the flight (0 red blinks). I'm beginner so I decided to stay with the GPS mode.
After around 6 minutes of perfect flying (Phantom responded as it should in GPS mode) and then Phantom just went bezerk. Started climbing and moving into a direction it wasnt supposed to, because I had all the controls in the neutral. As it started to come down it moved very fast and took a curve before going down to bushes. It's not a problem if you can keep the Phantom in the air above obstacles (trees etc). But the problem was that the it came down by itself and by all means it wasnt a landing type of situation.
The same thing happened twice, even when I had a good GPS. I'm pretty freaked about this incident, because I dont want to destroy my Phantom.
Any comments on this?
Few questions:
-Is it possible that Phantom goes crazy on GPS mode because of some issue with the GPS signal.
-How strong the wind needs to be to make Phantom fly like crazy (I didnt fly Phantom at high altitude and it wasnt windy)
