Concrete may cause the compass interference, please try to take off on a plain and wide ground, do not leave the drone to stay in the ground for a long time after powering on, that may cause compass error, too. Do you have another battery? If you have, I would also suggest changing another battery for testing. Besides, just to verify, are you using RC mode or WiFi mode to flight during the second time?
Thanks for the support, I purchased the Fly More Combo on preorder so I have two batteries and an RC controller. I always fly with the RC controller because it gives me better (read more familiar) feel and control. I have only experienced the problems on my second flight to date. I am not range testing or pushing batteries to their limits. Longest flight 7min to date and in light (<2.5m/s) winds, elevation is effectively sea level. I am still getting used to controlling it without having to concentrate. How long is too long on the ground before taking off? I am going through pre-flight checks for batteries, compass, GPS, wifi interference etc before take off and this at the moment takes me about 2 min. I will get faster at these checks but I am not confident enough to just take off without checking everything yet. |
