Phantomo will not stay in one place despite a perfect GPS lock! Please HELP!
Ok, so I was flying my phantom 2 vision + at night (stupid) and I could not see a tree, it caught the propellors and got hung up in the tree. I shut down the props, it was not a bad crash at all, it was actually hovering over the tree when it got wrapped up in it. I have had other crashes 10X worse. I got it out of the tree and everything looked fine as I imagined it would. However, I went to fly it and it would not stay in one place. It would hover around in a big circle or may would start drifitng back or foward. There was absolutely no wind. It had a perfect GPS lock, both with the green lights and confirmed I had 11 satellites on the vsion app on my phone. So the GPS was there but its not acting like it? It should just stay in about a 3ft circle like ususal. I also took the top of the phantom off and checked the gps chip and it looked ok, no visble crack or anything.
I reset the compass with a magnet and checked it on the IMU assistant. Everything looks good X-152 Y-472 Mode-1513 also went ahead and did a advanced IMU calibration. Checked all the motors for any leaves, twigs, etc.. in them and even put on some new props on for the hell of it. However, its doing the same thing. I get a good GPS lock 8-11 satellites, lift off, it goes straight up, but when I let go of the controls it will start drifting like crazy one way or the other. Makes it very hard to land as well even though I am going no higher then 10 feet. Do you have any suggestions or would you think purchasing a new compass would make a difference? It just concerns me because everything looks good in the IMU. Thanks in advance.
