    Mavic dropped mid air -> destroyed

    For me, this is unacceptable. Do you really think that I'm the only one who is doing that ? For sure every Mavic owner has at one time pushed both stick up at the same time. In my opinion, that's not a valid reason for a drone to fall out from the sky. If it is, should'nt DJI warn about the...

    I didnt notice if the front led were lit during the fall, but once on the ground, they were lit (back LED also). Maybe they light up again when the motors restarted. Battery "birthday" : Wednesday, March, 15th 2017

    Can you do a refresh package once you get a refurbished unit ? I mean, you have to activate the AC anyway

    Mavic dropped mid air -> destroyed

    As i live in Switzerland, i was not even allowed to buy a refresh package. So if the warranty doesn't cover it, i won't pay for a repair. Everything is brocken, gimbal, props, antennas, frame etc...

    Mavic dropped mid air -> destroyed

    Thank you all for your investigations. My main concern is to know if i did something wrong. Hopefully nobody got injured ! This is a serious issue and i hope they will give me another Mavic (and maybe ND 8 filter :( ) I had 2 high wind warning and that's why i was flying carefully, not far and...

    the largest DAT from today (date of the crash) is number 17 (71 MO). Do you need DAT from previous days ? Largest DAT file from date of crash here -> Dropbox - FLY017.DAT

    Mavic dropped mid air -> destroyed

    Thank you for your input. But, how come this is mentionned nowhere ? I mean, how could I know that ? I should have some warning saying that the props are going to fast or whatever. My battery was 100% charged from the same morning. Do you think that is a resonable point for DJI not to take the...
