I came across a clitch with my Mavic mini the other day with a warning saying "aircraft max power load reached". The aircraft then became unstable and then fell. Luckily no damage.

Has anyone else come across this issue before? It made me nervous now flying it incase.

Hi, Ive just had the same problem. I wasn't so lucky as I was flying over the sea and drone is now at the bottom of the sea. I have just looked at it final flight on my app and max powerpload reached message came up and then it did the same as yours, became unstable and then just fell from the sky. I still had contact and jus watched the screen in horror as the sea got closer and closer. nothing on the controller would bring it back up once it started descending.

Thanks for the reply DJI Stephen unfortunately there wont be a next flight as my drone is now at the bottom of the sea. As this crash was due to equipment error and not pilot error I am hoping DJI may take responsibility as the drone didn't respond to any controls and just dropped into the sea without any attempt to return to home although it was clearly still connected to the controller. As the first post in this thread is from someone who experienced the same thing but overland i am hoping DJI take this seriously before more of these things start dropping from the sky. I have contacted DJI about this. I am going out soon as the tide is going out in the hope it sank and I can find it if only to recover the SD card and will try again to upload the flight data to the forum

Hi folks, thanks for the reply/feedback.

DJI have responded and would like my drone back to assess it. I've actually taken the drone out since (1time) and no issues has occured.

Sorry to hear  of the loss of your drone. I would be gutted if that happened to me.

So sorry to hear this. I've looked over the log and I'm sure someone smarter than me will chime in and give an opinion but to me I don't see enough data to determine what happened. You did have relatively low sat counts and it looks like the stick movement was not recorded. I would think it would sink, and most probably the tide won't go out far enough for you to be able to walk and retrieve it

When you go full throttle for both stick it will give you that message, I have had that message from all the DJI drones I owned.  No need to panic!

Hi skajwalker thanks for the post when you say you had the same problem did your drone also just descend without warning or being able to anything about it. I'm curious to see of this is a widespread issue. Thanks

I think they've just renamed the error that the minis had when it was under full load. I get this really often in sport mode and assumed they'd just renamed the error.

From the log looks like you had a problem with your GPS  ..
The max power load reached might triggered since the drone could not maintain position ?

Thanks. I see what you are saying it seems to alternate between good to poor throughout the flight although it was good while flying it back towards the cliff. I wonder if the purple/dangerous was after it had hit the sea. Still strange that if it couldn't hold its position it wouldn't let me bring it up with the controller and just landed. Maybe ill never know the reason although I have now sent all the data files to dji.
