Combination Stick Command...a bad thing?

I was watching a Dji video regarding the top 10 reasons new flyers crash their drone.

They mentioned that using combination stick commands can sometimes result in the sticks being brought downward and inward, inadvertently. This results in propeller stop, and hence the drone falls to the ground.

Today I was using both sticks to turn in circles while propelling forward. Should I not be doing this?

Or perhaps as a new user it is not advisable but with practice it is ok?

It just seems intuitive that dual sticks are the way to go, as opposed to flying in rectangular vectors.

Just don't do a CSC mid-flight and all will be well.

Got it, CSC is what I was originally referring to. The DGI folks in their video reported that has caused a lot of new people to crash their drone. But I suppose if you are careful it is manageable, because flying with dual stick control, simultaneously is common correct?
 
I don't recall seeing any crashes here that were caused by an accidental CSC. It would be possible to do though.

If one wants to do banked or coordinated turns, both sticks need to be used. I think most of the time, people won't be trying to brake hard in the middle of a turn, while trying to drop altitude.

cSc can only be activated when there is major issue on the craft

this is not true. Mine crashed last friday while flying with no major issues. I simply forgot to turn off the retarded CSC thing(it resets after a useless firmware upgrade) while i was doing reverse funnels and she fell out of the air and now she is california being repaired. Make sure you turn off the CSC thing in advance settings (which is worded really poorly when you try to turn it off) before you fly.

one more thing when talking to the dji repair facility the csc is one the biggest complaints they have from customers. Maybe in the next firmware upgrade they will disable that retarded function with the sticks.
 
Yes , I recently learned that one has to set the CSC setting in the DJIGO 4 app to "Emergency" and not the default.

What this setting apparently means is that the drone has to have some emergency impact or blockage of one or more of the propellers and then one can CSC to disable and turn off the props

Oh OK so I have it backwards.

Seems like @gixxerbill indicated that his default was not set to Emergency after a firmware upgrade and thats why he recently crashed.

So if the Emergency setting was the default then he would not have been able to perform a mid air CSC command.

you know i hope that is right but I am not sure if I want to try the reverse funnel move just in case it doesn't work... unless there is a circus net under that mav.
