Hi!
This is my first post and I am a relatively new drone pilot. I have experienced these problems a few times now and after todays experience I have decided to reach out to you guys for help in diagnosing the issue. I have done all my preflight checks, all good. Good signal, 22 sattelites locked, I took off. Hovering perfectly fine, not much wind but there was some. Maybe around 8mph. Here is a list of some of the issues I face:
- Putting the drone in sport mode and ascending fast, gives off a strange sound from the propellers, as if they are touching something and I often then get a warning on the app to say 'Motor error...' and I loose control of the drone and it starts ascending without being able to control it. I often get back control if I switch to another mode (Normal or Cine) and try and bring it back down. Because of this, I stay away from sport mode. In normal mode or cine mode I have yet to encounter this issue.
- On todays flight, I have completely lost control of the drone and it started to ascend further than the safety limit. I dind't think this was possible and it worried me. I couldn't bring it back down either as it went into negative altitude and would refuse to land. I put it into sport mode so I could bring it down quicker and that's the only way I was able to force it to land after a couple of tries, although I wouldn't call it much of a landing as at around 10m above ground it descended faster and just sort of dropped in the grass. At one point it was reading -800ft altitude. I kept trying to bring it down but at around 40ft high, it would start ascending again. One thing I noticed was that one propeller was not spinning as much and seemed to be stuck together. but when it slowed down it seemed fine. Maybe they tangled in-flight? If so, that's worrying. Possibly related to point no 1?
I saw others post logs, I'll see if I can do that as well. Please let me know if you need more information to help. I really appreciate your time to read and comment.
