Hi Everyone,
I was flying my DJI f550 Naza-M hexacopter and the motors turned off mid flight in GPS mode and my copter crashed to the ground. I don't have a video of the actual crash, but I do have one of a few minutes before when the same thing happened, except in this case the motors turned back on shortly after turning off.

The helicopter is in intelligent mode so it couldn't have shut off from the throttle being lowered too quickly. I was about 100 yards away from my hexacopter when the motors stopped and it crashed. Could it be that there is something wrong with my Tx and the signal wasn't strong enough at that distance? The other thing I considered was possible interference somewhere nearby that interfered with my transmitter and caused my copter to shut down.
I'm really stumped by this one and can't figure it out through traditional research on the forums. Any help on why this crash happened would be awesome!
