Hello,
We encountered a crash with our OctoQuad X8 drone during an AUTO mode mission. The incident occurred near the final phase of the flight, where the drone unexpectedly lost stability and drifted toward the rear-left quadrant, ultimately resulting in a complete crash.
Context Summary:
- Frame type: OctoQuad X8 (coaxial, upper-lower configuration)
- The log file is lengthy; however, ARM was executed shortly before the incident, followed by an immediate transition to AUTO mode
- No pre-flight warnings, errors, or abnormal behavior were observed in the log or ground station prior to the crash
- The vehicle and payload were both completely lost
Attached are:
- The full dataflash log (BIN)
- A video showing the moment of failure
We are currently reviewing all potential causes. Your insights, similar case experiences, or suggestions on areas to focus on in the log would be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your support.
