[QUOTE="Mako79, post: 2143, member: 151"] One thing i never do is update firmware when on holidays. I am scared that the firmware will brick the device and then i would have to spend hours online trying to fix the device and not enjoy the holidays. Worse case that you may be one device short on a trip. Eg. All your details, maps, booking info are soft-copied on your phone. If you brick your phone due a firmware update, you will have to go find another phone and hope your data is backed up. The other thing i do after a firmware update on my DJI product(s) is checking all the settings and making sure they haven't all defaulted to factory. I recheck the IMU. I give it a full charge. I then take it to an open grassy field and redo compass dance (not compulsory) and then do basic 10ft hover and a few basic maneuvers until battery warning pops up. The flyaway in your case could be a number of things. You will need to access your flight logs. I am thinking that your vision system went cross-eyed and maybe mistaken a bird's wings for a hand gesture.. I dunno... Maybe too much rebar in the ground?? [/QUOTE]
