So had a hell of a scare this evening. I hand launched my Spark in gesture mode. It started gaining altitude going until I believe about 100 feet up. Maybe higher. Of course, not being that tall it was basically on its own.
I grabbed the remote hoping to gain control of the aircraft. It seemed to connect and I started its decent. The decent was coming down MUCH faster than normal. VERY fast. I was able the break the impact of the craft with my hands and it basically fell to the ground from chest height with only a couple of scratches on the top and some slightly nicked up props.
Has anyone else seen or experienced anything like this? Any reports of runaway Spark in gesture mode?
Also, is the flight data recorded on the craft or in the application on my phone? Any way to retrieve the data to figure out what went wrong (besides the obvious).
Firmware is up to date.
