    Mavic Went CRAZY!... CRASHED

    UPDATE.... Warranty repair! My only concern is that they have only cosmetic parts listed, nothing internal. They say it will be thoroughly tested before sending it back... we shall see. Thanks everyone for you input, I appreciate it!

    Mavic Went CRAZY!... CRASHED

    Just a quick update on my 'situation'. My Mavic Air is somewhere between Chicago and California right now in a nice little brown box. It should arrive in DJI's hands later this week. I am hoping for some kind if communication from them the following week. So, I am going to ask some of you...

    Mavic Went CRAZY!... CRASHED

    I’ve flown in the same place a bunch of times.. took off from the exact same location and flown the exact same path towards the forest preserve right across the street. I was completely clear of the building, maybe 150’ away before anything went wrong. The Air is complete stock, only had it a...

    Again I am very new to this but you all made perfect sense. If I can't switch to ATTI, don't waste my time telling me to switch.

    Mavic Went CRAZY!... CRASHED

    Do they extract the info from the drone? I filled out the paperwork on line and boxed it up. I have the flight data on my computer. I'm guessing it's in the drone too? BTW, that you all so much. I don't typically reach out for advice on the internet but this has been awesome. One way or...

    Mavic Went CRAZY!... CRASHED

    Wow guys, like I said,I’m new here and I never expected you to break this down do well. So essentially it wasn’t clear cut ‘pilot error’ but DJI likely won’t take the blame here either? Sorry to be such a rookie but I am.... I don’t even know what Atti is.... sounds like it needed to be...

    East... interesting, I didn't know there were pics in there. I'm new to this, is there a lot of pics or videos or what is that all about?

    Mavic Went CRAZY!... CRASHED

    Here it is... the flight record. Looks weird because it shows that I flew over the building, and I didn't. I went straight north, not over the building.

    I got some compass warning... I've flow here a bunch without issue. Crazy.

    Mavic Went CRAZY!... CRASHED

    Took off for a short flight, got about a few hundred feet away, maybe 75' altitude. All of a sudden the thing went crazy, wasn't flying level and seemed to be flying at a speed similar to sport mode. It somehow headed back in my direction flying on it's side (life knife edge) and slammed into...
