I was flying my hexacopter this weekend and had been adjusting gains. I've noticed that on descent I get kind of a corkscrewing motion so I'd been playing around with the vertical gain.
I'd just lowered it by 10 and flew away from me about 50 feet. I was doing a slight climb and yaw at the same time and suddenly the hexacopter started cork screwing badly. It started coming straight down as if in a fast descent. I throttled up to full power trying to slow it but there was no response. I landed hard and broke 2 arms and one landing gear.
I have an IOSD Mark II and looked at the logs.
Not sure I totally understand how to read them. There was a lot of wild roll, pitch, yaw change at the point of crash. The motors all seem to be wildly powering up and down
Anyone seen anything like this?
