I can answer the first two,
•Can I initiate a long descent by pulling the throttle down to the locked position? Will it fall out of the sky like a brick?
Yes you can lock the throttle down for a long decent, no, it will not fall out of the sky like a brick.
However the phantom does not like coming straight down and it is far happier having some forward momentum to smooth out the decent.
•If I shut the motors off mid-flight using CSC will the phantom fall vertically in a controlled fashion (propellers catching the wind and turning the other direction to maintain stability)? Can I then flick to GPS to recover normal flight? What about if no GPS signal, will Atti recover normal flight?
If you do the CSC in flight the phantom will drop out of the sky like a brick, you will have no control over it whatsoever. |
