    Sudden Disconnection without RTH - Can anyone tell me what happened?

    I'm out of warranty but I did have a warranty repair a couple months back where one of the things they were supposed to fix was a problem with the craft losing connection occasionally & that repair was rewarranted for 3 months.... However i flew near an airport with only DJI unlock of...

    Sudden Disconnection without RTH - Can anyone tell me what happened?

    Sudden Disconnection without RTH - Can anyone tell me what happened?

    Yeah - Exactly, but I still shouldn't have though - look at the big karma dump I copped as I now look at the empty space where my Mavic 2 pro used to sit between missions. My second time over the ocean within hundreds of hours of flying was my first drone's last i will be more careful with my...

    Sudden Disconnection without RTH - Can anyone tell me what happened?

    Sudden Disconnection without RTH - Can anyone tell me what happened?

    Sudden Disconnection without RTH - Can anyone tell me what happened?

    It is like the battery ejected, aye... but I am sure it was secure - it was a Mavic 2 pro - warns if battery not secure But I was maneuvering at the moment of disconnection I wondered if I had pushed both sticks to centre by accident cutting the engines.... but that wouldn't have killed the...

    Sudden Disconnection without RTH - Can anyone tell me what happened?

    If I had intercepted a no fly zone I woulda got a vocal warning & drone stop flying forward / into zone & hover at edge of it as it usually does - would still have had control
