I cannot explain how the Mini 2 disappeared from sight behind a house with no controller input from my side whatsoever. I was happily ascending after take-off, reached 30m 19.0 seconds into the flight and then the Mini 2 scooted off on its own, reaching a speed of 28.5 kmh before I realised what was happening and provided stick input to try bring it back.
I DID compare craft orientation and physical North orientation before takeoff.
Home point was registered with 17 sats locked.
There was no nearby metal above or below ground to interfere with magnetic compass.
There were no apparent crosswinds.
I managed to regain control and continued with my planned flight without further incident albeit with soiled pants. Luckily the Mini 2 was high up enough to clear the house.
I suspect the same thing happened to my other Mini 2, only it was still low enough to crash into my neighbour's house. (My DJI supplier repaired the crash damage under warrantee after looking at the log files even though I was using a third party app at the time.). The thread about that disaster can be viewed here: Help me understand Mini2 crash.
Am I correct in suspecting IMU error or am I overlooking something obvious?
Input would be greatly appreciated.
