Oso - A big thank you for leading me to the right thread. Reverting to the previous firmware 2.00.0700 solved ALL of the problems. RTH works perfectly and forward speed is not limited.

Yes. The compass stated it needed recalibration. The IMU did not.

I bought this used from a pawn shop that thought it was broken. One of the first things I did before the first flight was do a recalibrate on everything.

Thank you to Andyflac and PhantomWetsuits. I will re-do the tests with the sensors deactivated, and try sport mode. Oso - that thread hit on the nose! The bird has firmware 02.00.0810 and exhibits 100% of the sysmptoms that Eaglecroft55 explains, right down to flying way too slow when going...

I am an experienced P3 pilot and picked up a P4 Standard in what looks to be like new condition. Before any flights I calibrated the IMU and Compass and started a series of small and short tests from my front yard with a maximum distance of about 300' from home. The max altitude was set to 120...

@ quaddamage Thank you for all of your advice. I borrowed some jewelers magnifying lenses and can see how the 'FC was pushed down breaking several, if not most, solder connections. I also see an indent in the GPS shielding in the top cover. Looks like it is time to get my vision checked...

The logs from airdata.com show that I started with the battery at 94%. The second paragraph of the original post shows what the actual cell values were at the moment the drone fell from the sky.

Here are pictures of the front motors, the top and broken propeller. The metal nuts pressed into the top had been partially pulled out. They were gently pressed in except for the one that was too damaged and it was fixed with a dab of JB weld.

Here are pictures of the center board.

KachemakDiver - Thank you. Yes. Here are the reported errors:

I am new to drones and bought a used P3A as my first drone. On my first flight after about 12 minutes the drone went into auto-landing mode after a critical battery warning. It then crashed before completing the auto-landing as the battery apparently gave out. It took a nose dive from about 15 -...
