Video is here:

-Open Lake
-Clear Line of Sight was about 100m away
-60%+ Battery Left
-Slowed down and then switched from Manual Mode to Normal Mode
-Birds were there but was far away from the drone. You can see them near the bridge and see it them again in the same location the closer the drone went into the water. You also don't see any birds nearby when motors stopped when you go frame by frame.
-Also, would hear the bird attacking the drone if it was.
-It can't be the battery because if it was, the recording would stop right away after the motors cut off.




What would cause this? DJI software?

Thank you DJI Stephen. I have contacted support!

CSC was probably executed. I'm not sure. I would review the flight log to determine what caused the motors to stop mid flight.

Hello all,
Just an observation but in the audio it sounds like a ricoche , sounds stupid but is it possible someone shot it??

Then again it only threw into a slow rotation, maybe esc failure on one motor before complete power failure, I hate theories and assumptions.I guess it’s lucky you weren’t over a busy area
