Has anyone experienced this issue? - trying to take off from one location approximately 20 feet away from power lines. On takeoff I kept getting the error - Motor error. Entering 5-motor mode. Please land immediately. This happened in the same exact location twice, but if I move down the road a half a mile each time everything works fine. Flying Typhoon H Pro. Thanks for any help. oh I was getting this error before I even started the motors.

You may have “radio” interference due to the magnetic field created around the transmission lines. Somewhere I read that you should keep a distance away From transmission lines, radio towers, microwave towers, cell towers, etc.

Reminds me of the old joke:

Patient: “Doc, it hurts when I do this!”

Doctor: “Don’t do that!”

Sorry - at 5am after a fitful night “trying” to sleep - instead scanning here - just seems appropriate for the situation. No harm intended. My electronics troubleshooting background just says “no!”

Exactly. As a solution was found by moving further away from the power pole, where the “problem” only occurs when close to the power pole, there’s no longer a problem. Instead there’s a condition. Avoid that condition.
