Dear all
I just joined this Forum as I yesterday lost my Mavic Pro and want to inquire further what happened. :-(
I have been on a regular flight and started to use Tap to Fly which was a bad idea it seems. The Mavic was on a descending path when suddenly I lost signal. Obviously the drone was getting too low and there where some obstacles between me and the drone which must have blocked the signal.
First I wasn't too concerned as I was trusting on the VPS sensors and was sure it will stop and initiate RTH. But noting like this happened. After a couple of minutes I took a boat and paddled to the place were I lost it. A fisherman who was around told me he saw it and the Mavic just continued descending until it hit the water. For me very surprising and not understandable as the VPS sensors always worked very fine, even over water.
We will try to find the drone again today, the water is not too deep there but yesterday it started raining and sight was getting bad.
Flight details can be found here: http://app.airdata.com/main?share=ZhMXwd
If anyone can give me more hints what went wrong, this would be much appreciated. Do I have any chance to claim for warranty as this should never have happened in my view? And last question, is there a possibility to see the VPS signal on Airdata? I could not find. But at the end of the flight, just when I lost signal, it should already have seen ground I believe.
Thank you very much for any possible support.
Daniel
