So I was flying my F450 DJI NAZA quad today.
Still getting the hang of it all after flying power and gliders for 40+ years. Quite an adjustment.
I'm using an original version Spektrum DX7 TX. The binding was successfully done and I have had about 50 flights with the quad since getting it.
Today, though, something very odd and terrifying happened. I had the quad up about 30 feet and it started to act a bit twitchy.
I thought it was just the wind, but then I noticed the VU LED was blinking orange quite rapidly, so I landed ASAP.
The orange LED was still blinking very fast so I disconnected the battery and then reconnected it. Still a fast orange blinking, and the motors would not re-arm.
THEN I noticed the red led on the Spektrum RX was blinking also. Now I was worried. It should be on solid.
So I did a complete rebinding of the TX /RX and all seems OK for now.
WTF is going on here. Do these 2.4ghz radios lose their bind for no apparent reason. This could be catastrophic in a major way!
Any comment or suggestions would be much appreciated.
BTW, the 2200 3S battery was fully charged and I had only been up about 3 minutes when this all started.
Thanks!
