I have had the drone for about a week and getting comfortable with it. Today I did 3 long flights with completely normal controller behavior and easily retrieved the drone into my hand at the end of two. I bring the drone down to about 5 feet and then slide my hand under it quickly, grasping it and then giving full down left stick to power down. Easy.
When I attempted this at the end of the third flight the drone added power and tried to climb. I released it and it stabilized in a hover again. Each time I tried this the same thing would happen. I then tried to land on my pad on the ground and found that adding lateral or forward right stick in any direction would make it climb slightly. I just moved the pad under it and did full down left stick to land it.
This is now the second time this behavior has appeared. I did have a incident a few days ago where the propellers got into a chain link fence and broke the props, but the drone suffered no apparent exterior damage. Maybe this incident caused internal or sensor damage? Odd that this behavior is only appearing after several flights each time.
Any ideas appreciated. Thanks.
