Guys,
I flew my F550 with Naza M today on another flight test.
Wind - 10-20
All preflight checks
I let the green led light flash to setup home plate.
Everything was good to go.
Im loving it so far. Except for one thing. Whenever I switch to Return Home Fail Safe,
it just flys up and then off to the left and away from me and the home plate.
I've done 3 tests for this so far. Not sure what the deal is.
Everytime I had hit the Fail Safe switch it just flys off. Once today it actually
flew past me and behind me. So I had to manually fly it back.
and the CRASH. ::::
I hit Fail Safe and hands off. It flew up 20m and starting flying off to my left like
usual, but I let it go this time hoping it would return.
Well, it tilted some degrees and starting flying back towards me. It flew past me fast and into the ground!!!
Hmmm. It happened so fast I couldn't believe it.
Crap. So I sent it off back to the folks I bought it from.
They set it up for me.
---- Things I noticed after the crash. All of these are variables. So who knows?
1. (1) Motor on the red arm was stuck. This might be the one that hit first.
2. (1) motor nut was completely loose.
3. broke 2 APC props.
4. No thread locker was used on these prop nuts.
5.
Not an expensive crash but I just feel like something was not right.
Now I'm a little scared to hit fail safe when I get it back in one piece.
I sent the 550 off so now I just have to wait to get it back.
Still worried though. I hate to think the fail safe wont work right.
