I had a crash after a loss of connection...

I'm new at this, but I thought there was a setting that prevented the camera from going fully forward to avoid getting the props in your picture. I thought you could turn that off so that it would go all the way forward. Sorry I can't check. Mine is off getting mended.

It's a wooden structure. And there are no cameras for looking at targets. There are security cameras, but they are wired. There was wifi out there for a time, but it's not working now as the connection to the range was so poor. They are in the process of laying fiber optic, so that is likely...

I am using the latest firmware... The .06 version.

I am using android (just updated a few days ago to the latest OS...whatever version they are on now) DJI Apps were all the latest firmware, as it asked me to do so when I unboxed it on thursday. I was using a GalaxyS5 that is no longer used as a phone (an extra one laying around after upgrading...

It was the .O6 firmware. I only had the thing for a day, so it made me update latest firmware. Thank you for your thoughts.

Thanks. I get that. However, the connection was lost between the RC and the drone. It said "connecting" on the RC. If it had switched to atti mode due to gps loss of signal, I could have just landed it. Anyway...I'm still trying to figure why I'd have a random RC loss in the open at very close...

So what would you have done? Clearly what I did had an unintended bad outcome. My intent in flying under the cover was to check it out prior to recording some training under there. And, honestly, I wasn't expecting an issue with the thing 10' off the ground and only 100' away. How would you...

Yes. Wooden trusses with plywood on top, wood poles, no walls....It experienced a loss of connection two minutes prior to the flight with the crash when it was in open error, directly after takeoff. The first loss of connection resulted in the Drone taking off and hovering about ten feet above...

The RTH is on me. I'm not so sure about the signal loss. I flew it in the morning with no issues. The buildings in question are wood, not metal. And, after the first loss of signal, I brought it closer. The crash happened 100 feet away, maybe closer as I was flying back toward myself...

Well. ****. I just dropped it off. I thought the files from my phone we're the ones in question. They show the loss of signal (on healthydrones) that happened prior to the crash, but not the final one.... Pretty odd. It was within line of sight, and where I was flying there should be little...

Hello all... wondering if anyone has any insight onto what I might could have done to fix this. Had my Mavic out at the shooting range. We have an outdoor range that has a covered area from the bullet trap to about the 25 yard line. The covered area is like a "pole barn" with large sliding...
