hi -- i've had my P3P for 2 days and it is amazing (my first quad). i spent many hours reading, watching tutorials, and using the flight sim before heading out yesterday -- in what was somewhat brisk wind conditions. it worked perfectly! admittedly, i had not read the part in the manual about using return to home within a 20m radius, the craft will drop down where it is so there was a brief panic as it dropped into the trees but remembering i could still control the craft during RTH, i raised it back up just in time to avoid disaster. good lesson -- it made me go read some more to learn why did it do that?!! :-)
anyway, i was wondering about the cross stick position where the motors are shut off -- what if i do that in mid flight? (as indicated the most frequent cause of failures). i was messing around in the simulator and shut down the motors while 100ft in the air. then i restarted them and regained control of the aircraft. i was curious if that would actually work in real life. if it goes into free fall and you restart the motors will it regain stability. when it drops in free fall, will it invert and go "head first"? is revovery possible from that?
thanks
