[QUOTE="Pashasdad, post: 4343, member: 651"] Thank you all so far for your inputs. I had last calibrated the compass in a large open grassy area where I normally fly the day before. Had flown with no problems at all. Did not recalibrate the following day, yesterday since this was a good calibration and the beach flight was was relatively close to where it was calibrated the day prior, ~5 mi away. I had just flown in gesture mode with no runaway. But, after just connecting to RC and relaunching without powering off it went haywire. I can't understand how a bad compass cal would cause that behavior in that scenario. Is it possible, from the flight record, that the prop flew off after taking off normally causing the aircraft to veer off? If left rear prop falls off during flight, for some unknown reason, would it veer the way it did? I can't believe compass error caused this given it was fine the dat before and a few minutes before the tragedy in gesture mode. [/QUOTE]
