This morning I was filming something for my tutorial about Hangar Autopilot modes.
Did the Follow mode in "course and absolute" bearing and that went super.
I landed after a low battery alarm and replaced the battery.
Took of as normal and when my Mavic was at 15 meters, I heard a "knack" and the sound changed directly and the Mavic starts moving away from me, trying to maintain altitude.
I've tried to land but no success. It flew away but I was able to recover.
All propellers damaged and some light scratches. Looks like the real right leg suffered some impact but after replacing all props, recalibrated the compass, it flew as always.
Lucky me as I go to Austria tomorrow for wintersport (was trying the follow mode in Airspace which didn't work) so will do the normal follow mode and tracking from DJI.
My advice.... don't wait too long with replacing the props.
