Yeah I am a little afraid of getting low above the water again. I love getting low side shots while friends are wake surfing. DJI would not investigate the logs as my drone was out of warranty. They offered me 15% off a replacement air 2s, I decided to just go with the air 3.
I will have to do some testing with the gaffers tape. Having it off and knowing it wont do this again would be great. I don't mind having to manually avoid whats below. This just happened so fast not much time to react before it was too late. And yeah very interested on dji's thoughts but...
Seems to be alot of back and forth if disabling / covering the vps is good or not. Wild that it happened with how high I was I had heard of that issue before and tend to not get much lower than I was. Kinda making me scared to fly the air 3 over water when I get it.
Yeah I had read about issues like that thought I would need to be lower for something like that to happen. Any real way to disable / prevent that from happening in the future? Don't want to have another drop as I frequently fly around water.
Yeah I was debating just buying another air 2s but seemed like the cheapest I could find for just the drone was around $700. Would like the increased flight time and such that the air 3 seems to have was just not planing to drop 2k lol. Who knows maybe I'll still pickup a air 2s in the future if...
Thanks for the video I was just surprised in the moment thought I may have been lower and accidentally hit down. When I checked the logs I was not really able to see any obvious mistakes that would have caused the drone to start landing. Sadly my warranty was up the week prior I have an air 3 on...
Yeah I think the gimbal errors and such came after impact with the front of the boat. I don’t know why it started a landing from what it seemed like in the video. I was holding up maybe a little delayed but I thought it was gone after the impact. But it came back up and crashed after that...
Stock props no damage from what I could tell. Not too many flights even on this drone just took it out the week before and used all 3 batteries to about 20% without issue.
Hey hoping someone could give me a little insight to what happened to my air 2s. I was flying over water following a boat flying backwards and appeared that my air 2s just started a landing. Lost it in the water sadly. I guess the drone got hit by the boat and came back up after I thought it was...
This happened to me multiple times yesterday. Flying around and recording all the sudden anything on the screen is non responsive. Battery, menus, map, ect all frozen. I have a S21+ latest version of dji fly app and firmware on my air 2s. I was worried about my battery and possible loss of video...
