So my rig went into the lake. You can see the flight path and crash here:
If anyone could shed some light as to what could have been the cause I’d appreciated it!
Setup:
ADS400Q-X
800kv SunnySky Motors
10x45 HQ Props
PixHawk rc10
OpenLRS DTF 1w RX/TX
2.4ghz SPW + ImmersionRC 700w VTX + Lawmate 8ch 2.4 VRX + 8.5dbi Patch
Taranis + 1w DTF UHF
30amp SimonK ESC
RcTimer 3 axis Gimbal
Wow cool, it keeps logging underwater!
Anyway, looks like it got switched from RTL to stabilize with low throttle before it starts descending. Also looks like water is denser than air (who knew?)
Could be pilot error or poor radio failsafe setup.
Assuming the baro works underwater (at least briefly), I think it was 46 inches underwater and still sinking when the water got to the FETs in the ESCs and shorted the battery out and it stopped logging.
