I launched my drone as many other times from a slow moving boat making sure it moved forward and I stood at the back of the boat so the drone drifts away from the boat as it holds its GPS position. But this time it lifted normaly out of my hands holded altituted and then all of the sudden it shut of its motors and sank in the sea. Could maybe someone help me to understand what could have caused this? Do I have to change some settings. Could it be that it somehow it triggered a crash detection and activated its emergency stop?
Unfortunately with the normal phantomlog viewer I couldn't find anything abnormal, just that it made a desecent even thoug i gave it full throttle.
Can someone shine some light on what might have happend? Thanks a lot!


 
Welcome to the forum!
Have you looked at the results of that link you shared?

My impression there is something I'm missing.
I will stay watching, waiting, for the flight data members!
