Ok, thanks. "normal" I take it. Happen to see any compass errors while flying in tap fly and draw mode? Seems to occur only in those mode in my adv..

Be careful with the compass errors.   It could throw you into atti mode quickly. Do you get any warnings before taking off?

All was OK before take off. I start suspect an iron fence just nearby.  Had a similar issue today. However I was filming an abandoned iron mine which might would explain it. Happened  a min into the first flight while ascending with speed. The next 2 flights no errors. Fortunately it was almost no wind so while in atti mode, lasted for 5 sec, I managed to keep control over it.

I'm about to get the DAT files from the craft and investigate further.

Btw, no wind errors today..

I just updated firmware on P4 and Controller today.

Took the drone for a test flight and it had no errors on takeoff.
I got the "Wind WARNING" and thought nothing more of it since there was no wind at all..
After about a minutte of flying. The drone flipped on its side and went into ATTI mode by itself!
There was no way to turn it back into P mode and on a second flight it did the same again..
Now i don´t feel safe flying it at all.
Before the firmware update everything was rock solid and no errors.
Any advice?

The wind message will pop up when the wind speed is more than 7m/s in the air, instead of the ground. Take care when the message appeared.

There have been many posts in other threads about this same issue describing the same things.  I myself have experienced these same warnings under the same/similar environmental circumstances.  I can't say what is causing this nor why, but it appears to be some kind of issue related to FW/SW.  Hope is that the next update will fix this as well as much more.
