It’s very strange and I’m not convinced it’s what is meant or what happens, if you look at craft like phantom and inspire there is no spiraling, CSC is left stick down and RTH, so motors stop craft drops, if you read CSC it says only in emergency I had heard many times in the past that CSC could only be engaged if there was a collision or missing motor prop etc, I’m not saying this is correct but I really can’t see the point in the spiraling if there is plenty of options to just shut down motors ie RTH and left stick down, CSC on the ground in normal circumstances is just the IMU realizing craft cannot go any further so shuts motors down, when starting CSC IMU sends message to fire up motors .
Maybe it’s one that needs clearing up, 1, will it cut motors without collision, 2, why the need to spiral .
I'm a bit confused by your response.
1. When set to "anytime", a CSC will cut the motors without a collision as demonstrated in the video.
2. When set to "Emergency Only", a CSC will only cut the motors when the conditions outlined in the manual (and screenshot into the video) are met.
3. A CSC command doesn't happen immediately. Even if the drone is on the ground, if you just briefly bring the sticks to the CSC position and release them, the motors won't start/stop. You have to hold the sticks in the CSC position for a period of time before the CSC command is actually invoked.
4. The spiral is just a byproduct of the fact that the CSC does not invoke immediately. So the spiral is just doing the movement of the drone as commanded by the sticks until the CSC is invoked. When the CSC is invoked, then the motors stop immediately (assuming "anytime") is selected.
5. DJI should update the manual to specify the time period the sticks need to be held in the CSC position for the CSC command is actually invoked.
6. Having this option set to "anytime" works just like I've read older DJI drones (such as the Phantom 3) work with a CSC command. See the caution note on page 46 of the P3P manual. https://dl.djicdn.com/downloads/ ... _Manual_v1.8_en.pdf
7. I've read stories in this forum and others that DJI changed the emergency motor stop to a different sequence on the P4 due to inadvertent invocation on older drones causing crashes. Its too bad they didn't make this sequence similar for the Mini. However, due to the placement of the RTH button on the Mini's controller, that may explain the difference.
Cheers. |
