Hi
this is my first discussion. I had a crash with my arducopter during a mode switch. My quadcopter was in "Loiter" mode after takeoff in "stabilze". I have to say that I made an error because I would like to do an "auto" mission flying thru waypoints but.... after programming the mission on planner before takeoff..... I forgot to "write " waypoints on arducopter!! (yes... my contribution to community is demonstrate that it is possible!!!!). After take off I switched to "loiter" mode in order to manage Mission Planner and start the "auto" mission.....obviously , after press "auto" key on planner nothing happened (I had the Planner message "the command failed to execute"). After that I switched to "stabilize mode" using my rc and... quad copter crashed. Observing the log file it seems that all output channels went to minimum when switched to "stabilize mode". I post the log file so.. if someone could take a look..... in the mean time I will rebuild the frame and upgrade to 2.0.49 version!!! the crash is visible at 81% of log playback. I have to say that I had a lot of fun in the past day flying in "auto" mode...so the system was tested.
Thank you very much for your wonderful work!!

OK,
So what happened is you pulled the throttle low to decent while in Loiter. The you switched to Manual control with the throttle in the off position. Sorry, but it worked as expected.

Quick question,
What position was the throttle in when you entered stabilize? Did you lower it immediately as it flipped?
Or was it already in the neutral position when you entered Stabilize?

Do you have the Log from the CLI?
Try dump 0 if no logs are present. This log has additional information. Thanks!
