    Mavic just kinda...well fell out of the sky. Here are my logs.

    Weather was clear and a million and I didn't see any birds directly, but to be fair it is something I could has missed since it was just far enough away. Technically I was looking at the camera to line up a shot when it happened, but prior to and after the incident I did not see any birds in the...

    If it was a prop fail, would the craft have been able to recover altitude like it did before the control system shut itself off?

    Actually, it was reddit, and someone from there referenced me here. I did link this thread there, so I am one step ahead of you!

    Wow, thanks a bunch for the analysis! Glad I finally have more of an idea of what actually happened. So, to prevent further issues like this happening, would it be wise to replace that motor? Or is this likely just one of those unlucky flukes? If you think it's best to replace the motor, do you...

    Ah, ok that makes sense Seems like a pretty bang on analysis, and definitely makes sense. I caught the roll and yaw, but didn't see the forward pitch. That would make sense as to why only the front two props are busted. Anyway, I have attatched the .dat file to this post.

    Is there a service such as Drone Base that does more than just compensate for the thought of accepting a job?

    I figured that would be the case. I might just sign up for multiple and only take the close jobs. That way I at least have a larger pool to select from. Thanks for the references!

    Fairly self-explanatory title. I got my part 107 in college and was looking for anything to make a little extra cash. At the time, $70 for a job didn't seem bad at all. And even now I don't mind it if it's close, but most of the time the requests are for an hour drive one way and $70 for 3 hours...

    DJI Flight Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com Hi all, so a few years back I was getting some aerial footage with my Mavic Pro out by the Griffith Observatory. As I was buzzing around I noticed my camera feed started tumbling out of the blue, but I didn't think much of it because I had a similar...
