Someone hacked my Phantom 4 Pro V2.0

[dewens]

Someone hacked my done while I was flying in the park. I was able to get control after I did a return to home. They push it almost into the clouds. Have your drone ever be hacked?

You’re thinking someone else was controlling your aircraft?
Flight logs would shed some light on that.

 

[dewens]

I think someone tried to link their remote controller to my aircraft and was flying it but I did a return to home and got control of it.

 

[Starz]

Would be hard for them to push the link button on your aircraft while it was in the air.

That's just sharing platform,,its impossible to use 2 remotes at once which means if you got control again your remote is linked to your p4 ,,,I'm almost sure that something else cause this like others metion,,,,yes,,,flight log will reveal what happen so no speculation occurs,,it will be interesting what it shows so upload it if you can for us to see

Maybe caught in an updraft?

Flight logs would be the best factor in determining the cause of this issue.

Ha I never watched till now,,,something very fishy because it keeps going up past 1000ft,I know I been there,,the drone motion shows now tug of war between 2 remotes again because the drone is steady,,hacked drones dont pan around at the view,,myself is thinking the drone software was hacked just to get that height and no disrespect to the OP but mayby just wanted to show us a good clip,,,,I almost bet the flight log wont turn up,,hope it does I'll eat my sock,well some of it,,....yeh I dont like socks,,bit chewy

Without the logs anything from here is just speculation.

No-one hacked your drone.
You have an issue with your VPS sensors that was sending spurious data to the flight controller.
You need to recalibrate your downward facing sensors or disable them.

I think it's that first flight log ay,,yeh 12,30 rth,,but goes up with your stick showing down but goes up nearly 2000ft,,, this I cant explain unless software mod been done which are out there,,,,,,if nothing like that something happen for it to go to that height,,,@dewens bit of a soory cause I thought it was a modified drone,,but still cant be hacked,,as above metion vps which now seem likely cause to go up but not respond to stick command saves me from eating my sock lol,,I hate socks,,
Was not looking foward to that,,,,also much respect for coming back with log ,,
I think you now hold the record for non modified drone in height,,phantom software limit is 1640ft

 

[dewens]

2024 ft

Waiting to see the logs disprove this....
