    Sleeping with the fish

    My next question about this incident: Did having obstacle avoidance set to bypass cause this? Was the drone in a situation where it was detecting a obstacle above (which was not actually there) causing it to fly down? This is why my inputs to fly up were "bypassed"? In that 6 second window...

    Sleeping with the fish

    Initial fly over the pond at 11:35 flight time I can see IMU heigh as -101.7 feet (maybe because take off home point was a higher elevation?) and VPS 15.1 feet. I can confirm VPS height was pretty accurate at this point. I could visually see the gap between drone and water but it was lower...

    Sleeping with the fish

    Yesterday I was flying my mini 3 pro and it decided to no input descend. I realized it was going AWOL and hard up pressed the left control stick to counteract the steady drop but no luck. Last image I saw was murky brown water on my RC controller. I went to the storm pond and it is disgusting...
