Hi,

My drone was hovering up and down when I tried to have it taken off every time. I found many people have experienced the same issue (see https://forum.dji.com/thread-114192-1-1.html and the video below) but couldn't find a solution.




Such an issue has resulted in many times of drone crash/collisions while I tried to see what's wrong. I don't haveDJI care now and I bet the repairing fee can be much higher than buying a well-functioned used Spark. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Thanks!

I purchased my drone on December 7, 2017 through B&H. Okay. I will post my case number when it is available. Thanks!

Yes, I also found several other users had experienced this issue. Really hope DJI will give me another chance to look from the sky.

Hi, I received the reply from DJI repair for my case (Case No:        CAS-2356912-M6L5P3). It turns out they are going to charge about $300 as they didn't realize the physical damages were due to the uncontrolled hovering issues. Would you have a way to contact the repairing team regarding this issue? It looks it was not just me suffering from this wired thing. Thanks!
