Hello all, I'm hoping someone here can help me. Today for the first time I started using DJI GO 4 because that is what Dji is recommending because they are not going to support DjiGo anymore. I flew at my usual location where I normally fly. Today, I was within Vlos and approx 200' altitude. I was hovering in place for a few seconds when all of the sudden my P4 started decending rapidly. At the time this happened, I was giving no stick input at all. When I realized it was coming down fast, I started pushing up on throttle all the way, but it was acting like it was fighting me. It did stop decending after fighting it back up. I flew back to my home point so it was overhead. I let it hover there for a few seconds again, then it started climbing for no reason at all, then decending again. Seems very erratic to me. So, I pulled the throttle down to land. As it was coming down, it was coming down very slowly, not it's usual speed at all. I did have over 15 satellites during this event, I looked at that several times. I don't know what would cause this to happen for no reason at all. After I landed, I shut everything down, restarted everything except this time I am using litchi. I took off, went back up to fly around where I was before, and it started again, now with litchi, so I'm guessing it's something with the P4 itself? Or could I be wrong about that? I did a calibration on Everything on a perfectly level surface outdoors with nothing near me. Has anyone had this experience or know someone on here that did? I am very nervous to fly now because of this. I don't want to lose my first nice P4. Thank you for any help you guys can give me.
