    Mavic flies into side wall of bridge, uncontrollable whilst 20m away in direct vision. DJI takes no responsibility

    If I were one of their fw engineers, I'd replicate this case as I'm not the first, and program it so it assumes the user is steering correctly. no obstacle detection, no gps assumption.

    DJI chose to submit and refund me after all. An additional image given to me on another forum which showed clearly it was aware of my commands but didn't listen was the key :)

    Waiting for the follow up of the Spry+ which hopefully has 1 inch sensor and stabilization. In the meanwhile a mini 2 I guess. I see the dynamic range difference is not so day and night as i thought with m2p.

    That's useful, thanks! I don't know why the DAT file didn't attach in the first case. Here you go!

    Lol, DJI reimbursed that tree hugging drone as it had compass failure. I don't know what this toxic vibe here is assuming that technology is perfect :p But yeah, false obstacle detection probably blocked my controls at the crucial moments, as it sometimes also did in mid air. when there were no...

    I was ready for it, it wasn't listening as you can see in the video.

    Yes. It was just to prove that in the instance it crashed it doesn't behave normally, it is not about my piloting which is slow and secure, as it could handle that close quarters without problems.

    well two of your assumptions were already wrong so i recommend watching, as the drones sensors were messed and RTH actually continued its path further from home...

    Doesn't explain why it went perfect before when it was pitch black in the narrow tunnel in the video. Did you actually check it? In this case I moved slowly forward and as i noticed it moving to the right against my will i moved it to the left slowly then strongly.

    Hi, My DJI died whilst flying under a bridge. it moved itself to the right instead of to the front, ignoring my commands, also ignoring my correction (Full throttle) to the left. whilst being very close to the drone. In all other cases it did not pose a problem to fly under a bridge in an urban...
