2 Ph4 PRO Turn off in the air and crashed

Flight - Discussion and Q&A
1

Summary of Issue: Starting everything as usual. Checklist checked in DD, home point updated, and then took off. After few flights with DD, in a middle of a flight we lost the signal and the drone crashed . We doubted that it was because of the batteries but the next day the same issue happened with another PH4PRO. We need to know what is the problem with our Drones. P.S: We worked with Dronedeploy for a long time (2 Years) .

Date Issue Began: 17/07/2018

Drone Model: dji PH4PRO

Mobile Device Model and OS version: Samsung Tab A Android 7.0

DroneDeploy App Version: 2.78.0

I had a Phantom 4 Pro drop straight out of the air about 2 weeks ago when initiating RTH during a multi-battery mission.

iOS 11.4.1
DD App 2.7.9

Presumably this would have taken place after the multi-battery app update? Was there much damage?

I didn’t even know about an update. It was a complete loss. We are looking at the logs.

Hi Mr Jono,
We had exactly the same problem with a PH4Pro and we really need to figure out what happened.
