CaCa happens...

Not sure what happened...
Was just doing an easy flight and as you can see, the Q just all of a sudden dropped for no reason and would not react to any stick input until the last second. You can just see the Q starting to move away from the hillside before the impact.
Telemetry shows no errors or issues at all. It just dropped.
After installing new blades, the Q works just fine.
At 4 seconds you can see me looking at the Q.
Finicky Drones I say......

Dang it.
It happened again today. This time (good or bad) it was only a few feet off the ground and close to me.
Had a regular and normal flight and was coming in to land.
Stopped my decent at about 15 feet and was just hovering.
All of a sudden, still under power the drone dropped to the ground and bounced back up off the landing gear to about 5 feet and hovered again.I let it hover there for a few seconds and climbed again to about 15 feet.
The problem didn't happen again and after a couple of minutes I landed normally.
Telemetry shows no issues or errors (except the occasional compass warning we always see) and I'm not sure whats happening with my Q.
Thinking I'll start with a reload of the firmware first. Been a while but I've had issues with this Q and firmware in the past.
Stay tuned...
