Hi all
I just sold my old version D Inspire 1 and purchased my new version D. While at home I updated everything with the latest firmware as well as twice calibrating Imu and everything else.
I travelled down to the caravan site where I have flown many times before and calibrated the compass. Then checked everything and it all seemed good.
So I took off and hovered for approx 5 minutes at around 1.5 metres checking that all the controls were fine. I then landed and removed the propellers to check the mounts and did another check around to ensure all screws were good.
I then took off again and flew around a little. 10 metres off the ground and 20 away from me. Then suddenly a warning "atti-mode" and then back to Gps mode. A few seconds later the same thing. I reduced height and several times the same warning.
I landed and recalibrate it this time far away from the cars and caravan. As I said before I have flown around my caravan for several months with a lot more cars and caravan without problems.
5degrees C. No wind. Clear day. Full signal on both controller and AC. No watches. Wifi and phone signals turned off. Basically everything exactly like it usually is.
So I would appreciate if someone had a little advice on what I'm doing wrong. Or of course as it's brand new is there a problem with the Inspire?
I have read a lot about others problems but usually different firmware or the advice fly in atti-mode to get used to it. I like Gps mode and bought the drone for that function. However it randomly falling out and changing the flight characteristics is not desired.
Dropbox - Gps error
Thank you very much in advance.
