Has anyone had an issue with the MP2 saying “critical battery, now landing” when their is 10% battery left. I was flying about 200 yards from my house and it said that and I lost communication with it. I couldn’t stop it and I thought 10% would be plenty to come back from that far. Needless to say I took off running down my street as fast as I could in full on panic mode. I had no idea where it landed. It could have been on the train tracks, side of the road , middle of the road or someone’s yard. I was out of touch with it for about 5 minutes but it felt like forever. I thought I was going to have a heart attack . I ended up finding it in the middle of the road at an intersection. [emoji30]. A car drove past and slammed its brakes on when I was about 50 yards away. Passenger jumped out and looked like he was going to grab it but it sounded like he ran over it. I was heartbroken and panicked at the same time. I yelled “Hey! Did you run it over”? He just looked at me, jumped back in and took off. I completely expected to walk up and see it smashed all over the road and was practically in tears. So I walk up and it was just sitting there perfectly fine. Needless to say I was very relieved but out of breath and thought I was gonna have a heart attack. Lol. We have power lines and train track power lines right there so I’m thinking the magnetic field could be disrupting communication with it. Either way I thought 10% should have been plenty to fly back. But I was wrong.
