    DJI s800 Uncontrollable Yaw and Pitch Over During Take Off

    Thanks for replying Benjamin. I did. The thing is it just happens randomly. Some days I would have good flights without any incidents; some days it happens after a few flights or so. I have not done that. I'll give it a try and see.

    DJI s800 Uncontrollable Yaw and Pitch Over During Take Off

    Hey guys. I recently have experienced a random uncontrollable yaw right and it pitches forward on take off with our DJI S800 Wookong M. I am using IMU V2. I was flying with 4.26 when it first happened. I have switched to 4.22 and 4.16 and it still happens randomly. First time it happened...

    Pro, it could also have been a bad solder on my part.

    Since September of last year. We fly about once a week except in the winter; November to March.

    Steve, thanks so much for the tips. Yup, that's what I am going to do my friend.

    Guys here are some pictures of the ESC. I hope it helps answer some of the questions you have. Pro, we had our FOD experience back in September of last year. I don't remember exactly how many flight we have since then. If I have to guess I would say it's around 50-70 flights.

    My friend, I agree. It has been a few days now, we have not heard anything from our guy Robert at uavproducts. He too is probably trying to get a hold of DJI. Looks like it's going to be a while before we are up again.

    S800 Major Crash - The spin of death

    Chris, yes we did to the ESC. We had to replace a few arms resulting from the FOD experience -- yes we have been through it all -- we have a while back. Now that you mentioned it, I guess I might have to go back and make sure all the points are well soldered. Steve, I will post it when I get...

    S800 Major Crash - The spin of death

    Thanks for the well wishes guys. jhardway you are right and also just as I suspected; one of the motors failed. We opened it up and found one of the cables going from the motor to the ESC was loose. I don't know if it was loose before or after the crash; but the way it spirals down it looks...

    Thanks guys. We got hold of Robert from uavproducts.com (our dealer). We are exchanging emails right now. I hope he can help us. Crossing my fingers.

    S800 Major Crash - The spin of death

    Guys. I have a chance to check the GPS. It's not that loose. I don't it pop off and cause the spiraling. If I had to guess I would say maybe be one of the motor was out. I emailed DJI support last week about getting it repaired but the email went unanswered. Has anybody had experience with...

    S800 Major Crash - The spin of death

    It's the older version. I didn't want it to be too sensitive to the stick. I don't know how having it that low contributes to lost of control. I feel ProPilot theory #2 makes more sense because my GPS was kind of loose. However I don't think that it was that loose that it would just pop off...

    S800 Major Crash - The spin of death

    This was our settings: 130 130 140 160120 120. ProPilot what you said makes a lot of sense. I just wish I know the truth. Chris it was an illusion. Things look faster than normal when you are that close to the subject. I had to admit we flew a little bit higher and a littler faster than...
