    Mavic Mini loosing control mid-air -> Second time

    This was exactly the case with the right rear. As you said there was no indication when flying, but the prop is clearly bent, if looked from the side you could see the leading edge near the tip of the prop it was poiting upwards. Hard to explain but it was clearly damaged. Hope that solves this...

    Mavic Mini loosing control mid-air -> Second time

    @slup Just to give you feedback. when Inspecting the props I could see the right rear was a little bent near the tip. Could not see anything wrong at the left rear. But I changed both props to make sure.

    Mavic Mini loosing control mid-air -> Second time

    I'm sure your analysis is much more in depth than if I had contacted DJI. Thanks very much. The conclusion is this is different than the last time, where one of the rear motors decelerated, causing the uncommanded yaw. I'll change the props and maybe see if I can see the deformation in the...

    Mavic Mini loosing control mid-air -> Second time

    Theres the DAT file. I'll also add to the first post. Can you find anything in the logs just after 424s showing the drone move around? Looking at the camera feed I thought it was going to fall off the sky because the the camera was looking to every direction but the one I was actually going (I...

    Mavic Mini loosing control mid-air -> Second time

    Hey, Im sorry, forgot to put this in this topic. But basically the drone lost its orientation, the camera shaked in all the directions, just like the last topic. Just like last time, I thought was the gimbal doing its thing, but looking at the logs you can see the MM moving off its intended...

Time of incident: 7m4.7s - 7m6.4s Can you guys see anything wrong with my MM in the logs? It has been doing this the day I got it, I...

    Mavic Mini flyaway

    Seems like some type of GPS failure, the GPS started throwing NoMatch errors Just after take-off. There's a bunch of errors related to GPS and Compass in the logs. I'm sure the guys here will have more info about that. I would say the Mini is stuck to this big tree, appears to be very dense...

    Mavic mini loosing control mid-air?

    I really do not know much about drone data analysis. Could the FC be compensating for the yaw at 467 s? I don't know what frequency the data from the engines are updated, but that appeared to be a consequence of the movement. As I said, I know next to nothing and still learning with you guys.

    Mavic mini loosing control mid-air?

    Thanks guys. I think Ill contact dji and supply this logs. This incident could be catastrophic with the motors turning off. Im away from my PC today. Can anyone check what was the maximum and minimum angle of pitch/roll in my incident please? What I could do to prevent this in the future...

    Mavic mini loosing control mid-air?

    Just to fresh your memories. My Mini is the one that had this discussion: https://mavicpilots.com/threads/mavic-mini-strange-behavior-after-take-off-drifted-away.89493/#post-1009567 I already saw the mini “lose” control on the roll/yaw axis before at very strong winds, up to 30-40kmh gusts...

    Mavic mini loosing control mid-air?

    Hey guys, First of all, there was no loss here, but I really wanted to figure it out what happened. 1- Contacted "ATC" of the airport that is less than 500m from my take off, they just told me to stay parallel to the runway, but theres almost no movement as this is a very small private...

    Mavic mini video in a dark environment

    Same thing, I’ve played with shutter and iso and the image was always underexposed, Im thinking in downgrading it to v400 and see if anything changes. I said about EV because I’m used to record over exposed but now theres almost no difference between 0 and +3. About the filter, no, Im flying...

    Mavic mini video in a dark environment

    Yes I tried, I think the main problem is the EV seems to be doing nothing. Even in a very lit room you can see the video is much much darker. Tried lowering the fps so I got a longer exposure and that helped, but not much.

    Just can't still understand whats happening, changing the EV does almost nothing.

    Mavic mini video in a dark environment

    Hey guys, I've had my MM since january and I've done more than 100 flights. Not much of them in the night. Today I was going to take a few photos of the sun set and noticed that when I turned the shooting mode to video it would go completely dark. I understand the MM sensor is far from the...
