crash

Hi Everyone It's a pity my first post here is a Crash Investigation! But I'd love to know what I did wrong! Since I had to travel with my Inspire RAW to another city for a film shoot, I decided to fly the drone at home (outside of course) to run down the batteries to safe levels. Since I was...

Did you know that UAS (drone) accidents may need to be reported immediately to the NTSB and may be investigated? (http://www.ntsb.gov/investigations/process/Documents/NTSB-Advisory-Drones.pdf) Per U.S. 49 C.F.R. § Part 830, a civil unmanned aerial system (UAS, a.k.a. drone) operator (other than...

Hello I purchased Phantom 4 on July 12th. After using Phantom 4 for a week, I got fascinated by the stability and quality of shots. So I decided to add Inspire Pro and ordered one on July 27th and got delivered on Aug 5th. http://www.ebay.com/itm/22219381 ... =STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT I enjoy...

Hello, I was curious if anyone here has had any experience with their I1 pinwheeling out of the air and then sending its corpse into DJI only for them to go silent. Now, I 100% understand that customer service reps at large companies usually have 0% access to internal wonks. But I have had...

HealthyDrones.com - Innovative flight data analysis that matters I was flying near an island in Komodo National Park, Indonesia yesterday. Second flight, less then 3 minutes in, battery at 78%, drone starts falling from the sky (from 84 meters last recorded altitude) straight into the ocean...

Hi gang, I thought it might be helpful to post this. We were flying Oregon dunes filming a model on motorcycle. My pilot had the cycle turn abruptly and in staying away from the rider we ditched it into the dunes. We were clipping along pretty good when it hit some pretty hard sand. When we...

So After the 1.9 firmware upgrade, all was ok, had a warning about sensor, and it rose once, but landed ok. I changed battery, it shot the job ok. That was last week. Until this morning. Weather has been shocking. Great day today, so got up early, check the craft software etc. Checked the IMU...

I was filming with a regular client of mine this week. We had just finished doing a shot when the first level battery warning was shown (25%). I began to bring the Inspire back to land about 10 feet in front of me, or about 30 feet from my take off position. I had the Inspire right in front of...

I tried my first flight with the latest DJIGO app software upgrade. Craft, controller and batteries had all been updated and up to date status reflected in app. ( I may have had Litchi on in the background )on my tablet, but I am not sure of this. I calibrated the compass. I did not have my...

Never thought it would happen to me, but I knew I wasn't invulnerable. I just crashed my Inspire 1. :( I was flying it over a field and it was up maybe 50 feet (still need to review my flight log). I was doing an upward spiral (sticks pushed up and outward). Then for effect I did the reverse...

Phantom 3 fell from the sky and crushed the roof of a moving car. The driver could have been in an accident because of the scare that led due to noise. The accident took place on 03/30/2016 18:06 in the Cuiabá - Brazil. If that was not enough to scare the noise when the driver returned to the...

It's a sad day for me. After a year and over 200 flights, my Inspire 1 finally bit the dust. I flew it in the mountains and went behind a peak. It lost signal, turned around, and went right into the peak trying to return to its owner. I've listed the Inspire 1 for parts here: DJI Inspire 1 For...

Flew the drone with my schools engineering club today. Practicing some faster turns in ATTI mode and medium winds...and I flew right into the only tree around us. Luckily the bird was only 2 meters off the ground when it dove into the branches. Also lucky that it's Winter and the branches...
