I have the 3DR quad, built from the kit. I set it up initially and everything seemed fine, except for my piloting abilities... I have since gotten better at flying it but the quad has recently started to behave strangely mid flight, sometimes it just doesn't respond to the throttle, it will either hold position or climb even if I take the throttle to 0% and then suddenly it will start responding again. Other times, it seems to loose its level calibration, it will tilt to one direction, never the same, and act like that position is level. I am able to wrestle it back to land but it is just about at the limit of the stick inputs. the last thing I have noticed is the APM does not seem to respond to auto modes any more, I fly it in stabilize most of the time but it no longer changes to RTL or ALT hold, could the APM have been damaged in a crash? I have a 3DR radio but I cannot figure out how to record logs or even get them to display while it is flying.
Let me know if you need clarification on any of my problems, I tend to be very scatterbrained when I try to put my thoughts to words
Thanks!
PS: any pilots in Utah? more specifically, the Provo/Orem area?

I'd do CLI Reset and loading the code and go through the config process again. Also check your RC input cables.
As for the 3DR radio set, can you connect to APM via them in the MP? If so, it will save logs automatically on your PC.
