    Forced auto-land crash...

    Just got word that DJI will be repairing my Mavic under warranty after analyzing the flight data. My only concern is no electronics or sensors were included in the repair sheet. The defective readings from the bottom-facing VPS was the initial cause of my problems. Back Right Motor Arm 1...

    Forced auto-land crash...

    Just a quick update... I sent the Mavic back to DJI for repair. It was delivered to their repair center last Tuesday but I haven't received an update since. In fact, the online status doesn't even show it as received yet.

    That's some really good info msinger! Seems like they could do a couple things to help with this... most importantly, allowing up stick to cancel the landing like in previous firmware. It also seems there should be some sort of safe guard that disables the VPS when your altitude is over a...

    Forced auto-land crash...

    And maybe the bigger problem here is that I wasn't able to stop the auto-landing command. With previous firmware versions, you could cancel it with upward stick movement.

    Forced auto-land crash...

    So... my Mavic decided to go rogue today and auto-land into a forest. I was flying off a local river getting some photos a couple thousand feet away from my location. No issues with connectivity or video feed. I turned it around to bring it back and noticed that it had been drifting higher, up...

    VPS issue after the last Firmware update.

    I'm having the same problem... I wasn't able to land until I turned off VPS. Full throttle down would start the auto-land even at 200ft. Anybody have a solution?

    FORCE LANDING ?!

    Had the same issue today while flying at 150ft. Full stick down and it tried to auto land. Happened anytime i used full stick down while bringing it back. I'll have to watch the VPS reading next time it happens.
