I have had full control link loss to this aircraft before. Last night I had no left stick control other than being able to go forward or back when in C and P modes. I was able to switch into Sports mode and fly out of the errors. I fully blame the smart controller and DJI not issuing a recall for safety related to the smart controller and the Air 2S. I am sending the drone to DJI.
