My Inspire 1 fell out of the sky from 15M the other day, 4th flight of the day, Powered up with fresh battery charged night before, waited for initialisation and home point to be updated, took off and retracted gear while climbing to 15M, stabilised in hover not touching controls saw 'landing gear retracted' appear in the GoApp then it shut down and fell to the ground destroying the I1 and X3.
The battery was ejected after ground contact and was still on with 4 lights.
Reviewed the playback and battery was at 100% on startup and was at 98% when the recording stopped, of course it didn't record any errors when it shut down....
Wondering if DJI will come to the party with repairs.
I powered up the drone with the same battery, it still indicated 98% and no battery errors in the app, no errors recorded in the log.

Let alone the battery % - Did you look at each of the battery individual cell voltages?

DJI Susan.

My case is: CAS-2355342-V3K7D6
I requested an analysis of why it shut down in flight and didn't receive one, only a quote to repair.
The shutdown was unexplained and was without ant input from myself.
