[QUOTE="Giancarlo Solarino, post: 8068, member: 1520"] Last Saturday I experienced some stranges behivors on my spark. Everything was up to date with last week's updates.(Controller FW, Drone FW, Battery and App.) This is what I did: 1.Turned on Controller. 2. Turned on Spark. 3. Connected using wifi to controller. 4. Opened the app(Iphone6+) and changed frequency to 2.4. 5. Connected OTG cable to Phone. 6. Connected OTG cable to Controller. 7. Turn on Airplane Mode. 8. I took of from a 2th floor balcony using palm take off.(with cammera pointing at me, press power button twice and it took off.). and the activated SPORT Mode. 9. I turnned it around and flew about 340 m streight. So Far everything good. 10. I dediced to bring it back and pressed and hod RTH button on RC (Altitud was 32. and RTH altitud was configured at 30m) . 11. Drone started to came back but gainning altitude at the same time (FIRST STRANGE BEHIVOR) 12. It came back until 44m distant and 75m ALTITUDE!. 13. I cancelled RTH pressing RC button and started to bring it down on my own, full stick down. 14. Then drone enter AUTOLANDING MODE. and I couldnt cancell it. When pressed cancell the app was not doing anything. 15. Suddndly landing stopped and I was able to get it closer to me. 16. AUTOLANDING STARTED AGAIN. 17. I was able to canceled after pressing the button so many times until it did. 18. I bring it 1 m close to me and tried to land it in the front yard of the house. Full stick down and the drone descended SO SLOW. If you see the logs you'll see that descending speed was about 1km/h. It was very dificult to bring it down. 19. When finally get to the ground it did it fast and bounced a couple of time hitting the floor until it finally landed. This was really scary and strange. When I saw the logs I noticed that after palm launched there is a message saying 'Camera Settings Adjusted to ActiveTrack'. Which makes sense for the palm launch. And noticed that there was a FORCED LANDING message on the logs. I didnt noticed if gesture mode got stucked for not changing it. I think the stranges things made by the drone may be related to this. Greatfully the drone is OK. But I wanted to share this expirience in case it works for someone else or if someone knows what was the reason. logs: [URL="http://app.airdata.com/main?share=CTNOZH&page_id=GENERAL"]Airdata UAV - Flight Data Analysis for Drones[/URL] [URL="https://www.phantomhelp.com/LogViewer/KWNHGPV2F7H6FFGT044L/"]DJI Flight Log Viewer - PhantomHelp.com[/URL] [/QUOTE]
