Hey guys,
I crashed a DJI Inspire 1 drone. It was on command for RTH and it was enroute for return to home, as it was hovering above the homepoint after landing gears were lowered it stalled and fell to the ground. I couldn't save it by cathcing, there were some wind and it dragged wide to the side. My friend dashed to try to catch it but it wasn't meant to be, it smashed into logs on the ground. The arm/body hinge was smashed and the front left landing arm was sheared, also ultimately the zemuse x3 was also in tatters. The side of the zenmuse X3 was broke open and the inside was also smashed.
I am very devastated for this but i need closure as to why the drone downed because it was a major investment. I have extracted flight recorders and upload it onto Healthydrones.com upon my amateur analysis i see that the battery pack still have 19% charge in it (the last recorded charge), but upon closer inspection i found that the voltage in cell 1 have deviations and the deviations widen until there was only 2.7 V in cell 1 a deviation of 0.824 V (according to www.healthydrones.com). For your further analysis I have included the data in the .csv file for your analysis.
This is the data from the last flight of take off. The drone failed when it was on RTH function and was hovering right above the home location for landing, and then it stalled/shut down and fell from 114 feet/ 34.7 m (last recorded ascent).
From what i analyze the cell1 voltage deviated and had major deviation on the return back, this caused the battery to fail and ultimately lead to the demise of the drone mid RTH landing.
I need your opinions on this, is this what lead to the stall? Is it because the battery failed? If yes, is there anything i can do about it?
I need closure as to why the drone stalled, as well as i want to know whether my analysis is correct.
Thank you beforehand, guys.
