[QUOTE="Nico X, post: 110445, member: 19962"] Hello Everybody, I safely piloted my spark from an harbour to the open sea following a boat, which was carrying me and the subject of my video story. Then my drone landed on the deck (it wasn't and easy one given to the wind). After a short navigation (we were close to the shore) I launched it again but it lost suddenly video connection (it was like 3 meters away from the remote!) and then quickly became unresponsive, hovering on the see at about 50cm altitude. It was impossible to take it home, so we had to recover it manoeuvring with the boat. Unfortunately the wind and the high sea didn't help us so it went under the sea. Notwithstanding the freezing temperature, I had to jump from the boat and to recover it from the sea bed. I don't want even to bother about taking it to DJI service (in Rome, Italy, it suks anyways). I want to know why it happened. why it had such behaviour. why it got unresponsive on the sea. I want to avoid the same mistake in the future with my next drone... Thanks in advance for your help Nico [/QUOTE]
