Had just flown 3 other packs with no issues. Firmware version: V01.03.0000. Did a simple power loop and this happened:



Drone appears undamaged.

This has happened to me several times now.

This specific event occurred in the U.S. in class D airspace while on a LAANC clearance.

This flight controller behavior is completey unacceptable and dangerous!

Very frightening. Now of course the Avata is not made for freestyle but it still shouldn't freak out while power looping or after a crash. Did you try to disarm?

Now I know there are hundreds, if not thousands, of Avatas flying ok, but as much as I would love to own one, this apparent 'flyaway' issue after impact stops me from purchasing one.
