Motor/ESC Overload/Overheat
It is possible that the motor or esc have overheated, which may cause the drone to self-land.
Cause:
- First check that you do not have third party props on, this has been seen to cause the motors and ESCs to work harder which will cause an overload.
- Check the alignment of your props and motors via the motor mounts.
- Environmental factors like heat and density altitude
Diagnosing:
- If the issue goes away it could not be a permanent issue.
- Monitor the temperature on motors and ESCs by feel and reduce payload.
- Switch ESC to a new location and see if the problem moves places or stays.
- Ensure you use approved DJI propellers
- Fix motor mounts if angles are not correct.
Solutions:
- If it is hot out, reducing payload will reduce the workload on the drone and can help keep components cooler.
- Avoid long ferry flights!
- If the issue persists then the first step would be to replace that esc.
- Next step would be either the motor or esc composite cable is causing the issue.
Conclusion:
This can be seen because of an excessive amount of weight for the current battery level, or bad alignment of the motor angle. If the problem persists, replace parts above.
