Well heres another story of a DJI Phantom throwing a temper tantrum for no reason and flying like someone grabbed my controller and gave it full 4:30 position on the Right sticks and full throttle as I was hovering it 20' above my head taking dusk shots of every light in the house ramping up, thankfully I didn't take it in the house like I was going to and have it fly through a priceless oil painting.
It was almost identical to SacDs video
Heres what Im searching through for over 12 hours now, 4 with three people and was out for 3 hours the night it happened hoping to see any lights at all
For those that never found theirs did you buy another one? Do you have confidence in their product enough to risk (in my case) $1200.00 every time it decides to just "do its own thing"
What other options do we have, what else is in this price range that doesn't have all the fancy GPS, IOC and other features that Im almost sure is what causes these "loss of control" by shoving too much into a small package. I only ever flew in ATTI mode just because the thing was GREAT its first 320 minutes of footage.
Im just wondering what would happen if you bought a car (cough....Toyota....cough) that all of a sudden just pulled the wheel right and went full throttle and ejected you to safety and your car drove off into the middle of the desert never to be seen. Granted this product is 5% of the cost of a car but.........
