Was shooting some b-roll of students checking in for a summer camp when right after take-off the phantom acted as if it had no GPS lock. (drifting on last course like flying indoors with no GPS) I took off once, landed, cycled power and let 11 GPS lock again (11 satelites), then took off. As you can see in the video, the drone drifts still, but when I let go of controlls to see it if was stable it started flying to the right. Even pressing hard left to correct, I could not stop the flight to the right. My only option was to gain altitude to miss the roofline of a building and spin the drone so it was oriented with the direction I was facing. Bust as soon as it cleared the roof, it just continued to pick up speed untill the crash. I switched off the remote as it cleared the roof, but to no avail.
This is a drone that JUST came back from DJI with repairs after a motor failure cased a crash. This drone will be going back again for repair, and then I'm selling it. This has NEVER opperated correctly since purchase, and I no longer have any faith in it. It still flys currently, but still with the same problem, when released to hover, it will start to drift (random directions each time) and continue to tip until crash. (I've tested it a few times just 4 feet off the ground.
