Hey there,
I´m using my Anafi Ai for a month now and I´ve always noticed strange behavior, like the drone not being able to takeoff at all due to vertical sensor failure, drifting away instead of hovering after takeoff or not being able to land.
Another weird thing was that after running on idle for a few minutes I wasn´t able to power it off with the button, instead of the led count reducing indicating shutdown they increased indicating bootup? The only way to power down the drone in that state was to remove the battery.
Sensor Failure was resolved with a change of flight location and I could live with but something happened during my last flight which rendered the drone completely unfunctional...
On my first flight that day I already was struggling to land the drone, but at some point it finally did.
On my last flight this was different...
At 20% battery capacity, the drone refused to land just like before, cause it detected the ground as obstacle.
At 5% capacity I grabbed the drone with my hand but it still didn´t turn off, so I turned it a bit to the side and it shut off (still not clear about whether it shut off because of the dead battery, because of my impulse or a mixture of both).
Even after charging the battery was in a weird state where one red and one green solid lights were illuminated, but I fixed it with a hard reset of the battery (press 15 sec) and now the battery´s behaving normally.
BUT the drone doesn´t initialize the gimbal or motors when powered up, the fan runs continuously.. (and I do need to remove the battery all the time when I want to shutdown)
I´ve tried resetting with 8 sec one of the four lights blink, but nothing happens and when I press it 30+ sec the battery just resets again. I´m not able to get all LEDs red like described by parrot, they just go off:
"4. Press and hold the battery’s power button: after 8 seconds the battery’s LED light up in red, one after the other.
5. When the 4 LED are red, release the battery’s power button: ANAFI powers off briefly then reboots."
Yes, I´ve tried with my second battery too!
Any help is much appreciated!
Cheers Patrick
