[QUOTE="tfrank48, post: 94976, member: 17211"] What could cause so many yaw errors. [This ended in a crash, but with apparently only a broken prop.] I flew my sparky since (short flights), with no apparent problems. I am aware I only had 8 satellites on takeoff and 42% battery [after the fact] ... I know, "bad boy"! Somehow I grabbed the wrong battery [out of the 3] even though I swore that I charged all 3 batteries in the charge bank the evening before. I had flow the day before and no problems either. I'm not looking for a lecture on poor judgement, pre-flight, etc. I guess I was just blinded by the awesome Switzerland scenery. I have an Phantom 3A, Mavic Pro & Mavic Zoom with no crashes. I'd just like to know if I might have a defect in Sparky, just waiting ......to CRASH Why didn't I take one of the other better drones you might ask .... Insurance in Switzerland - you have to have 1 million in liability for drones 500 grams or more ... Sparky weighs 300 grams at takeoff. I believe the Mavic Air is under the 500 gram limit also, but I don't own one. link to Airdata UAV flight record for that flight: [MEDIA=airdata]phRsWT[/MEDIA] also I attached the flight record txt file [tried to upload the cvs, but that extension isn't allowed.
