[size=14.6667px]today i was in the middle of a pretty normal flight and my s900+e1200+n3+lb2 decided to RTH. clear line of sight, not near any source of interference, full bars in DJI GO on both the hd and radio icons.
[size=14.6667px]i got a "tips: signal lost. aircraft returning to home point" and then it hightailed it to the home point at full speed. i could see the telemetry the whole time. i tried many times to cancel the RTH by tapping on the red x at the left and then confirming, but nothing. ditto once it decided to auto-land, tap to cancel, confirm, nothing.
[size=14.6667px]unfortunately my takeoff spot was pretty close to some trees (no other accessible open and level area near where i needed the shot) and so she clipped a branch on the way down and crashed from maybe 20 feet. probably lost one motor and arm, landing struts, a few props, some frame bits. the 22000mah lipo has a small dent.
[size=14.6667px]obvious question - how could it have "lost signal" if all the telemetry was still updating? total distance (taking into account the vertical) was a bit over 300 meters, clear line of sight. about halfway through the RTH, it also popped up a "warning: command timeout."[size=14.6667px]
[size=14.6667px]can DJI offer any assistance here?
