Hello Fellow Bebop2 pilots. Hope your all keeping well.
This is a strange one. On Nov.12 I went to the park to have a quick fly and to discharge a new battery getting it ready for storage Using Skycontroller 2.
I put the drone through its paces, doing Follow Me, Dronies, Flips, flying high, flying low in addition to several RTB’s. It flew perfectly!
With a battery at about 60%, I brought it back in via RTB. With about 12 feet in the descent left, it suddenly did a front somersault and drove straight into the ground. Props still spinning.
Cracked the central cross and smashed two props. Hit the ground so hard it dislodged the battery!!
Here’s where I can use some help from my fellow pilots.
The drone stats, show a flight of 11mins 43seconds. The flight footage shows 11mins 39sec. When you look at the footage as the flight ends, it‘s probably still around 25-30 feet high. Much higher then my 12feet observation.
When I did the flight overlay telemetry, all gauges stops at the 11min 39secs.
And finally the drone doesn’t show a crash occurred!!
Parrot Tech Support think it might be a firmware issue. Have any of you had a similar experience? Battery still shows 58%. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards to All.
