[QUOTE="ChristoffB, post: 88622, member: 15478"] Thank you for the reply. You are quite correct - Spark went into landing mode and not RTH as I've stated. Because of it coming down so fast by the time I saw that it will hit the fence it was too late... [B]Why did it descent at such a fast rate?[/B] Even without hitting the fence I am almost certain there would have been damage as a result of it hitting the gravel surface. I would have thought that the infrared sensors would start working again once it was able to 'see' the ground below. I have spoken to a authorized repair company and they indicated that one can replace just the cover. Whatever the outcome is, I am quite sadden by the whole event. [/QUOTE]
