Sorry to hear this. I do hope you find it.
Primary causes of “Fly Aways”:
Pilot error:
• Pilot did not calibrate the compass prior to launching.
• Firmware is not upgraded.
• IMU has not been calibrated.
• Loss of orientation.
Environmental interference:
• Flying near high tension power lines.
• Taking off from metallic surfaces, concrete with rebar, manhole covers, cars and pickup tailbeds etc..
• Flying near microwave towers and cell phone towers.
• Interference from the copter to the GPS/Compass. This can be from the lipo, video down link or RC link depending on the frequencies.
Hardware failures:
• Compass/GPS failure. Check the Mod readings in Assistant. If the calibration does not bring them into normal range, contact your dealer for replacement.
• IMU failure. Make sure that the IMU/Naza/Phantom controller is mounted with the supplied DJI double stick tape. If not reattach and test. Also check the Mod readings in Assistant. If they will not come into normal range after advanced calibration, contact your dealer for replacement.
• ESC/Motor connections. Make sure that the ESC’s are connected to the flight controller correctly and they motors are connected to the ESC’s. There have been reports of bullet connection failures.
There may be others but this is a list that if you follow the cautions and do the recommendations you should be problem free.
