DJI Go 4 version:  4.1.18
Device: Iphone 6
OS. IOS 11.2.1

I was doing a dronie and after i initiated GO spark is flying backwards as expected then it began hoverring eratically then crashed into the sand.  

Flight Log Here.

Thanks!

Right at the end of your log it shows you lowering aircraft by controller , when you say it crashed Int the sand, what altitude was it at?

i see the spark was flying backwards at a constant speed and IMU and VPS altitude decrees as time go . All i see spark was flying backwards on a dune or a steep coastal beach and hit the sand at the end.
Sorry  
Or not... the quickshot has ended , aircraft is returning but the distance kept incresing .

I don't see that.. at the end it looks like he was not making any inputs with the sticks.. all reading the same value 1024.

623 seconds 100% full throttle down , right at the end of log.

OH.. I see now.. I was looking at RCElevator not RCThrottle... Just trying to learn to understand these logs..  Still.. he was inputting UP right up until .5 seconds before the end...   I think the thing here is why it never gained altitude to start off with..  if he was doing a 'dronie' shot it looks like it never got more than a few feet off the ground according to the vision sensors.

The problem could be that drone was rising but so was ground underneath drone, so in other words it was going up hill . It’s just a theory can’t make out from the picture.

Sorry for the crash, is the drone damaged? I would recommend you refer to the link below to contact the Support to start a case, then send the drone in for diagnosis and repair. https://www.dji.com/support?site=brandsite&from=nav

I was trying to stop the propellers from running, because it hit the ground already, the absence of CSC to stop the motors is a bummer.

I was in a much higher place, the beach area slopes downward.  What i noticed is that the spark did not seem to go up significantly as with my previous dronies.

No damage to the drone, fell on soft sand (a few feet from water).  I fell propellers underneath so no damage at all and no sand.  I guess i am lucky.  I flew it after a couple of times after and all is good.
