I found these videos (these videos are NOT mine) of a guy flying his Mavics way too high, I'm not talking about 500 meters max… He hacked the firmware and went so high that the height indicator glitched in an integer overflow and looped around into negative values… This is crazy!
My question is just WHY would anyone do this??
At 2:15 in the video you can see the height indicator going to negative values and seems like he is descending, but it is just glitched, he keeps ascending…
Here is the video (it is in russian, but just watch what he does, don't listen if you don't understand russian):
Here is him doing the same but with an Air 2S and (I guess) in a different location:
And he also did it with a Mavic 2, this video is titled “Mavic 2, strange glitch happened while doing height test, result: crash”. I mean, what does he expect, it isn't that weird for a mavic 2 to crash if you fly it to 3000 m AGL, is it?
Here is the video:
What do you think about this, is it normal?? He puts other (manned) aircraft at risk!
