Hello,
I'm writing this thread to help myself understand the Sense and Avoidance system on my Inspire 2
DJI's advertisement: see attachment showing the location of the Upward Obstacle Avoidance sensors. inspire 2 Sense and Avoid
Forward and downward vision systems enable the Inspire 2 to detect obstacles up to 30 meters ahead, allowing for protected flight at up to 34mph (54kph)at a controllable attitude angle of 25°. Upward facing infrared sensors scan obstacles 16ft (5m) above, adding protection when flying in enclosed spaces. Obstacle sensing systems are active during normal flight, RTH and all Intelligent Flight Modes. These sensors are core components of the DJI FlightAutonomysystem, which brings the below intelligent features to the Inspire 2:
I was flying in a tight space. Five feet off the ground, five feet away from me. I noticed the battery life was at 15%. I dropped the landing gear using the switch on the controller and started my descent. Before I was able to land the battery life changed to 11%, the RTH Low Battery mode engaged, the landing gear went up and the craft ascended into an obstacle above it.
Two thousand dollars later for repairs and DJI Support stating the aircraft had no malfunctioning sensors, I'm left with myself trying to understand the functionality of the sensors.
I know and understand an option would be to disable this feature...
Any advice, suggestions, or comments please...........
Addendum to above:
On a previous flight the aircraft was traveling 18 mph and hit the side of a large tree and the obstacle avoidance did not work as well. Both crashes i incurred at least $2k each.
