High Folks, thanks for taking the time to read this. I absolutely love this Drone. I've logged over 1000 hours flying it with no mishaps with the exception of today. Steer clear of trees, Period and you shouldn't have one or at least any major mishaps unless your a beginner and fly the thing straight into the ground due to inexperience. Start of easy and slowly until you get the hang of it.
Im flying my Mavic Pro at a local recreational complex. Take off was perfect and I proceeded to fly around the field / baseball diamonds with no problems at all. Eventualy my battery was running low, and it RtH.I was flying/controlling my drone from the outer edge roof of the complexes main pavillion. My take off was executed from the pitcher's mound of the closest baseball diamond from my location. I was flying my MAVIC PRO off the ground between 2 and 5 ft and what better place to fly than a large level area such as this sport complex in my town.
As I was returning home I came to the opposite side of the pavillion and entered the center isleway about 1-2 feet above the picinic tables but in the center of the pavillion.
About 20 feet into the Pavilion I stopped the drone to hover for a few seconds. I had removed my fingers completely off of the controls and suddenly the motors revved and the drone revved and ascended 1straight up and slammed into the ceiling ( around 12-14 feet higj at full speed and fell to the concrete floornd landing upside down while running at full speed and spun around until it hit a leg of one of the picnic tables. One propeller came off and my MAVIC PRO kept spinning in a circle making its way over to one of the legs of a picnic table. While still spinning it made its way back towards the the center isle still spinning. I grabbed it and pulled the battery out of it. The video had stopped just before I grabbed the drone and managed to pull the battery. Hence I now have my MAVIC PRO with a damaged right rear top of leg with a wire connect to some kind of spade (size and looks like cigarette match , detached right rear leg damaged camera broken propellers and the Lord knows what's damaged inside. and spade. I've had her for around a year and a half and consider myself a pretty experienced drone pilot (heh, like this place, no pun intended) and for the life of me have no idea what happened by the way I had my thumbs fingers hands whatever completely off of the controls I was just holding the controller by the sides.
Any advice or ideas what happened and what I can do in regards to having my drone repaired which I think should not be of any cost to me all your help would well be appreciated thank you for taking the time out to read my unfortunate experience with my MAVIC PRO DRONE.,
