Hey everybody!

I got my second solo the other day and while I wait on the parts to upgrade the GPS I figured I'd try it out to be sure everything worked. Charged the batteries blah blah blah. I got about 12 satellites and it appeared to be good to go. So I launched it up to about 20 feet. It was OK for a few seconds and then it wouldn't respond to control. It just hovered where it was at as I move the joysticks, hit the return home etc. After a minute of staring at it wondering if I would have to just let the battery run down, it finally responded to my sticks. Has anybody seen this before? I power cycled both the controller and the bird and tried it again and it seemed OK. Just kind of curious about what might've happened LOL.
 
you might have experienced interference on 2.4ghz. Mine did that when I was too near to a wifi access point. Of course, at the moment it first happened, i wasn't thinking logically enough to calmly come to that conclusion. I freaked and shut the controller off, relying on RTH.
