I veiw the ocean as a great place to fly. No objects, obstructions, wifi interference, level surface, and still has about a 50/50 chance if it goes totally wacky and flies away of heading back to land. I have had it over land a few times now too and I'm more comfortable over the water. I haven't...

I would say I looked up from the controls about a quarter of the way through the drift to the right. And it was facing a westish (out to sea) direction until I touched the controls. I launched off the ground. The building I live in is concrete and 12 stories so I imagine it has steel supports...

Not that I see.

Also thanks everyone for trying on this. I have no idea what motivates people to stare at spreadsheets to help other people for free, but I'm glad it happens.

Yeah all of that is what was confusing. My initial thought was that the building behind me screwed up the gps. But for that to be the case I imagine the gps would have reported not moving as it was actually moving or some other weird GPS data. But honestly it shows almost exactly what my first...

This part of the trip here is the drifting.

The distance from home at 20 seconds is 108 from home at 28 seconds it's about 138. There are no controller inputs. I'm struggling to see how that is because of controller inputs. If you just imagine the sticks swapped it's the same controller set up. Just swapped the sticks.

The movement I'm referring to is at about 20 seconds. And the stick stuff is just swapped it's not custom. It started to respond at about 28 seconds again and act normally. There were no stick inputs from the 20 second to like 28 ish. But the drone moved like 50 feet. Just imagine the right...

This data actually seems like it might be closer to explaining what happened. With the building at my back it felt like the wind was blowing out to sea. But I thought it could handle winds like these. May be I'm just used to the winds in maui but it really didn't seem any higher than the videos...

I'm using controller 3. It's more like a fps. I kept trying to use the stock control but it was like writing with the wrong hand so I set it up closer to a video game controller.

So I've only owned it for like a week and I've had 2 issues. The first I think was from me not realizing it didn't have gps lock because the only drones I had played with before were just controller ones with no brains. It took off said it hit it's maximum height at like 10 feet. Started...
