"Thanks Craig, my pixhawk would appreciate a good autopsy. I know any expert info about what happened would put me more at ease about flying with the system again.

"So I was finally contacted by 3DR about this, and they actually offered to repair it. Sadly I bought it used from someone so I don't think that I will end up getting any help. Thanks for your input guys. I guess at this point I will just replace the…"

"I was trying to take pictures of my yard at the time, so I was flying through the video link. It definitely took off in a hurry, but I don't think it could have gone more then about 150 feet high at the most. Looks like there is a lot more going on…"

"Well that is good to know, thanks. I am a little puzzled as nothing  on the copter has been changed, and it had been flying great. The props were all balanced, im not sure where that much vibration would have been coming from."

"For me it was all modes, and I am really wishing I had changed things to that I had stabilize available to me now. It was scary to have a rouge IRIS that I couldn't even cut the throttle on..."

"That is a sound theory. It was probably near 90 out today, and my first mission went fine, changed the battery and flew again and that's when I had my problem. However now that I had this happen today, I realize I had a similar event a few flights…"
