A few days ago I was flying my Solo, purchased in Dec/2016 from BB (Deal!) with a standard mount, GoPro Silver, and a Kodak PxelPro 360 setup. Alll had wifi shut off. I did a short 5 minute or so flight and all was working well. I landed and turned the GoPro on as I had forgotten to turn it on so I could see the flight. I pressed the button to start the flight, take off and it immediately took off sideways instead of going up to 15 feet or so.
I saw that it was out of control so I was able to use the controller to crash into the ground to stop the fly off. But it would not turn off or stop the blades. I even tried turning the battery off but it would not stop or turn off. It only ended when the battery was depleted.
While it continued to run I tried turning the battery off, turned the controller off and on, and tried to reconnect to it;'s Wifi which it would not do.
Any ideas?
I'm going to test this again in a very large open field without the Kodak PixelPro. And check again that the GoPro Silver's Wifi is off, It was off, whenI've shot with this setup 4 times before without any issue.
Perhaps I pressed the A or B button by mistake? Would this cause a crazy fly off just after flight?
But why it would not turn off iis of real concern to me, is there a fail safe turn off?
Thanks,
Robert
