Hello guys, i tried my Anafi before couple of minutes tried range distance, i was flying around 70m altutude and when i get around 900m distance range i lossed signal and it stops there, there was nothing, RTH didn't worked, i tried manually but still i losed control on my controler, than i was drived to that location it stays on the screen where the drone is at least i was conclude that, and after searching for around 10m i was finded, i really think that im not crushend in anything, because i have decent altitude and there is no buildings or anythin,g im in rural area, really dont know what is happeb, i have it for couple of days, now i contacted guy which have it before this anafi to see what we can do about it. Here are pictures. Abd please help md what to do now?

Sorry to hear this, not good at all.

Still will be worth putting in a request to Parrot, given all the issues we have had lately with others doing funny things, got to be worth a go.

What Firmware were you using
What version of FF6
Had you updated the firmware on the batteries recently.

Once again very sorry to see another broken Anafi
 
Latest app from google play, firmware i think 1.6.7 latest, nothing did it, i get it before couple days ago, its second hand i swaped my Fimi for Anafi with guy, seems everything fine and really dont know what was happen, i really think that im not crushed in anything...
 
Ah sorry yes, I remember talking to you previously about the swap. I still think it would be worth you talking to Parrot given all that has gone on with the dodgy firmware updates lately.

Might also be worth posting your flight log json on here, some of the guys might be able to pinpoint what went wrong, help you understand better.

How to get flight log please can you explain me?
 
First question is the flight showing on your Tablet/Phone when you go to to the bottom of FFS where it has "MY Parrot" and your sign in name. Click on that and it should show you the problem flight....... Is that there?
 
Here are what i can see about that flight in app...

What i can tell more that i was trying channels on which to fly, and in this cae i use 1st channel, before that it was somewhere around 5ghz 150 channel something like that and i was tried auto to, don't know can be somethin about that. And i was flying above power line, but like i said didnt crush into it i was above... Really dong know what is happen, unfortunetly guy which i swaped drones have spare parts and we will fix it i hope so... But i would really love to know what is happen.
 
Update:

Hello guys, finally i have again my anafi, it's working everything is fine, replaced three legs, and one part of gimbal.
So i just want to ask you know, what do you sugest me, to fly or not, even if i want to fly probably it would be near me, and not to much in height, because im really scared now to flight again, like i said i think that it's not fall because of me im 100% sure in that... But what to do...
 
Sadly that is the nature of the beast - every drone pilot will have crashes, failures and just random dropping out of the sky. It is a matter of odds and a function of time - longer you have been flying more likely you will have a failure!

You have to bite the bullet and carry on, -or- give up the hobby and retire your gear and never fly again.

I understand that, ofcourse that is posibke to have situation like this. But im asking because lot of falls been past days, and what i can read that is fault of newest firmware update, and im scared about that. Because of that im asking you eho have more experience with Anafi.
 
I'm in the same boat. After 350 flights with zero drop outs, and then 2 crashes and the loss of my original Anafi in a months time, my confidence in Parrot is shattered. It's no fun flying when you're worried it's going to drop anytime. I'm waiting to see if they'll release some more firmware with "improved stability". If not then I might get a Mavic Mini for every day recreational use and only use the Anafi when I actually need the zoom, flight plan, or freedom from the no fly zones.
