Thanks all again for your reply. I thought about it when I was actually doing some test flights. I revisit the data and have the following finding: when having a high brake sensitive setting, the braking was more drastic but the motor RPM or the tilt angle of the drone was more or less the...

placing it on a flat surface works for some battery (e.g. mavic 2) but I doubt it works for some(e.g. mavic 3/M30), given their structure difference. Anyway, it is good (and absolutely necessary) to check before flight. I have an additional safety practice ("in-flight inspection", if you would...

based on the background, a poor conditioned battery is the most likely cause. Yet, the log (.dat +.txt) can tell. I have similar experience with drones from Autel (EVO II Pro) before. The new battery (charge cycle < 10) just drops 0% within seconds during flight. I experienced it three times...

Actually, I am always more afraid of giving stupid/invalid/unintentional harmful suggestion. What I mean is, if more information is provided, the experienced pilots in this forum can offer their help better. I would be equally glad if the OP had already solved his situation so not reply to us.

Well, I think having a photo of the situation here would be good. so far, we just know three facts : treetop, 40m, drone hanging there. Let's say, these are all true and accurate but still we know little about the circumstances. Some solutions/approaches may be sensible in particular...

Being a city boy, I have to ask: are you sure the tree is 40m tall? It would be a very tall tree. Were you flying in a forest? that may add difficulties to the "rescue". and if you are sure of the exact position of the drone, you may consider using another drone to "rescue" it. the down side...

Thank you everyone for your reply. I was just hoping the setting is somehow recorded in the telemetry, but I won't be surprise if it is stored somewhere. I won't be worry if the maximum braking sensitivity. However, with low sensitivity setting, the drone may drift longer than the pilot...

Hi all, I am not proficient with the language of telemetry so I will just tell the story and hope that you understand the question I am asking. Sometimes, my fellow drone pilots complain that their drones "drifted" and thus crashed with no sticks control. Whilst majority of the crashes are...

hi, I set pin point in the RC during a flight and afterward, when I went back to office and switch on the RC again and found the pin point missing. I was using Mavic 3T with the RC Pro Enterprise. Any idea why? i thought the pin point is saved in the RC.

Well said. I suppose the prime consideration for recreational remote pilot is different from remote pilot who use the drone for work*. Indeed mission is everything. I 100% support that flight safety should be in everyone's mind and should be the prime concern in a lot of situation, but there...

Hi Alex, I think I was not presenting myself well. On the contrary, I am suggesting you activate the OA function so that the drone would think that it is not safe to land and remain hover. After you tested and confirm your "obstacle" function well, you can de-activate the OA when you take...

hi Alex, In a sense, it can be "disabled". The "force landing" procedure is kind of safety feature..... to prevent the drone falling out of the sky when the battery is completely out (not just 0% in the meter, voltage so low that the motor can't work anymore). And there is another safety...

without dragging away from OP, the involved Mavic 3T has ATTI mode. But it was not activated nor involved in the incident.

There are 3 logs in the google drive: (listed in chronological order) DJIFlightRecord_2023-10-70_[12-05-29] This appears to be the record of a test flight, immediately before the incident flight. Everything seems normal. Drone Deploy.log This log covers the incident flight...

it seems to be a hardware problem, which is rare with Mavic 3T. It seems that the problem first start at ard 0:47 (timing as in the video, same for below) and the gimble malfunction at first (pointing upward towards the sun and caused the sunburn protection) but by then the drone seems to be...
