    My Wife to my rescue.

    That's awesome, great use of the MP! I had something similar happen last year at my in-laws house. They have a real nice spread up there, but were experiencing some roof leaking, and it just happened to coincide with a seam in their roof-line. I actually owned a different quad ( Yuneec...

    Mavic Air fell out of the sky

    Possible blade icing? IF icing were to have occurred, the blades would have had to spin faster and faster to counter the lack of efficiency of the airfoil. Maybe the system interpreted that as an obstruction? Just my .02! Glad you got her back though!! EDIT - Tried posting this a bit ago...

    What is an H-60 variant with an ERFS (extended range fuel system) installed, minus the tanks, Alex? ;)

    Mavic Uncommanded wandering

    Wow.... **** good work there Budwalker! I've never experienced ATTI on the mavic, but I flew many early FC quads many moons ago, as well as some modded RC helis, and it reminded me of that. Just...wandering. It's interesting you mention performing an IMU calibration. I always check sensor...

    Mavic Uncommanded wandering

    Exactly. Weirded me out when it happened. As I said, I felt comfortable just watching her float, and when I told her to move she did. It was just odd. I'd hate for that to happen at more than 80 feet from me though...

    Mavic Uncommanded wandering

    I thought so too, but when I saw it, and later saw the vid, it just seemed weird. I would think that if it was getting bad GPS data, it would make obvious commanded movements (even wrong ones). This just seemed like it was floating around. Like the IMU's had a brain fart. Just real lazy...

    Mavic Uncommanded wandering

    Okay, so I've uploaded the DAT files to my OneDrive account. I've actually loaded three files, as they all seem to have different times, all closely related in time. Anyway, here's the link: Mavic DAT Files In the meantime, I'll be looking into the file analysis software you mentioned...

    Mavic Uncommanded wandering

    sar104, Thanks for that! Can I ask which program you used for the analysis? Regarding the DAT files, I'm getting a warning indicating that the selected file types are not authorized to be uploaded. I realize that I can just change the extension to TXT, then upload them, but I don't want to...

    Mavic Uncommanded wandering

    Thank you Anthony. I didn't know that site existed, I'll be sure to add it to my list of tools. Question though, what does the little black and white dot mean around the place that it started wandering? Any ideas? Thanks again!

    Mavic Uncommanded wandering

    Morning y'all. I had something happen the other day, and it's got me a little spooked. I did a quick test flight the other day (color management settings), and had my Mavic just start wandering around on me after a non aggressive turn. I never got an ATTI warning (or any other warning for...

    But she flies well, so I'll deal with it. ;)

    Noticed the same thing. DJI Go app / Galaxy S8

    Sometimes, the only way to trust technology is to test it!

    I've noticed the same thing during RTH. My RTH is typically 100 feet, but upon activation of RTH, it climbs to approximately 60', yaws to the new flight direction, then continues to climb vertically to RTH altitude. Then it comes on home. Strange...
