"Rejean, thanks so much for your reply. I've noticed the huge fluctuations in voltage on Mission Planner. I'm not sure if the sensor is too sensitive or if there is a problem somewhere. I'm using a brand new 3DR power module. I did go through the…"

"Thanks for pointing me in the right direction on this. I'll begin some due diligence on this topic. Do you have any idea why when it is landing itself, it won't let me retake control. I tried switching it back to stabilize to regain control and get…"

"I saw a tutorial on vibrations and hadn't gotten that far. All other calibrations were fine so I guess I got a little ahead of the game. Luckily only a $20 mistake. More costly in lost flight time.  I also had a fishbowling issue earlier in the day…"
