Avata 2 lost control after switching from Manual to Sport mode
I was practicing Manual mode for the second time today. I have 20+ hours in the simulator. While practicing flicks, I hit the ground but recovered. A few seconds later, I switched from Manual to Sport mode using the rocker switch on the RC 3. As soon as I switched modes, the drone stopped responding the way I expected and shot forward into a building. I wasn't able to regain control before impact. The drone is now damaged and unable to fly.
Has anyone experienced this when switching from Manual to Sport mode? Could the earlier ground strike have caused an issue, or is there something about the mode transition I should be aware of? Does this sound like pilot error, wind, or a possible fault with the drone? Any advice would be appreciated.
