Been having good flights recently but all of a sudden...
Yaw

And note also that Somehow I was, without any action from me, able to exceed my set maximum altitude!
Was a tad nervous but thanks to experience and practice, was able to control Hui-Spark for a faultless session with some good footage.  



max altitude?

Hi Droffarc,

Where is that sudden YAW?  
All heading changes in your log are RC controlled.
(see chart, if yellow lines are not horizontal than yaw excursions without OP input)

Your max height exceedence ; its all within baro height range, so imo not really an exceedence.

BTW  2x ATTI in your log, must have been a no-wind day to fly, as your SPARK did not drift away!

cheers

Hello and good day Droffarc. I am sorry to know about what happened to your previous flight with your DJI Spark and thank you for sharing these information with us. If in case this issue will happened again on your next flight. I would recommend re-linking the RC and aircraft then re-calibrate the IMU as well as the compass to see if there will be changes. Kindly check if the aircraft and RC are up to date when in terms of firmware update. Kindly ensure that the GPS is strong enough when flying your drones to avoid the incident. Have a safe and happy flying always.
