So... my Mavic decided to go rogue today and auto-land into a forest. I was flying off a local river getting some photos a couple thousand feet away from my location. No issues with connectivity or video feed. I turned it around to bring it back and noticed that it had been drifting higher, up around 300 feet.
I gave left stick down and it automatically went into a forced landing mode. I attempted to cancel the auto-land on screen but the red X was greyed out and wouldn't respond. Full left stick up wouldn't stop the landing. I was able to maneuver horizontally but not vertically. I realized it wasn't going to make it back to me without landing in the water so I got it over some trees before it finally went down and crashed.
Luckily I was able to recover it from the woods... It actually held up quite well. Broken prop but the gimbal seems to be alright. Thoughts? I have insurance with State Farm but this seems to be a technical issue that I hope DJI will own up to. VPS issues I assume.
