Re: Hmmm

It depends on what the "signal loss" behaviour actually is.

Most will cut motors and plummet.

Many others will "freeze" and continue whatever they were doing - be that hover, accelerate to the left while rolling and thus smash downwards as hard as possible, or accelerate straight up...

Maybe one in a thousand will attempt a safe powered landing.

And maybe one in ten of those will succeed.
