Okay Update 20160813 - As mentioned I did all the above and took it out for a flight this morning. ZERO issues with any drop-outs. So one of the many suggestions worked! As usual I checked UAV Forecast to ensure kp index was low (2) and other conditions were ideal..
One funny thing happened, okay maybe not so funny. My "test area" is this park with a baseball diamond I put it on the infield dirt to take it out of storage mode and to put it in storage mode. Today when I was wrapping up I put it in storage mode and the landing gear went ALL the way up to "flight" configuration. I quickly picked it up, deployed the landing gear and tried again. Same result! I again deployed the LG and tried again, same result! So I cycled the battery on the bird and remote and tried again. Same result! Okay, if you read one of my subsequent posts, I didn't "rebind" the bird and remote. So I did that. Same result!!!!
I googled it. Didn't realize the "Visual" system on the bottom dictates how far to raise the LG. I looked back at the baseball diamond and saw that it had been "freshly" groomed and was very uniform and even. Moved over to the concrete area which has irregular shape and pattern.. Sure enough! Storage position achieved! Very interesting..
Anyways, looks like it solved for me! |
