Guys,
Please see my message sent to DJI support and please help me understand what happened to my Air2s and behaved like I describe below:
"On Saturday, the 10th of September, my clients booked me to do drone photo and video for their corporate party on a boat.
- At around 13:00 Cyprus time, while the boat was parked at the port, I flew the drone around, up and very close to the boat and all were normal. Drone responded to all commands.
- An hour or so after the boat departed, it made a stop. I flew the drone around, up and very close to the boat and all were normal. I landed the drone and after a while I flew again, made photos, videos, and the drone hovered, and responded to all commands.
- An hour or so later, the boat made a 2nd stop. It was approximately between 17:08-17:18 Cyprus time. The drone initially started flying normally and responded to the first instructions. Ensuring all was ok, we invited the guests of the corporate party on the deck to capture video with the drone. AT THAT MOMENT THE INCIDENT OCCURED AND I HEREBY provide all details as far and as clear as I can remember:
The drone started flying like crazy. Out of control. It was not responding to any of the instructions. Not only out of control, but also very fast. From normal mode I switched to cine mode but the maneuvers continued fast without slowing down. The drone was flying away the opposite direction, and I was trying to pull it back, and then again it was going forward fast and I was trying to bring it back. At a moment it slowed down and tried to land it. When it was close to deck, it went little up again, and fast in forward direction into the cabin, almost hit the captain, then flew out of the cabin again, gained little more weight and then I decided to crash it on the top of the cabin. I stopped the propellers after the crash by using the 2 on the joystic (pulling inwards) and on the dji fly app, I received note that the drone crashed. CAN YOU CONFIRM THAT YOU CAN VERIFY THIS CRASH ON THE DATE AND TIME I AM REFERRING? I picked the drone in my hands and switched it off. The next day, it performed perfect. So, why happened what happened on the boat? What caused the drone to fly like that, out of control and without responding? This is what we need to find out.
You must understand that it was like out of a horror movie. People below and children were afraid and running away in an effort to avoid getting hit by the drone".
