    Hi,

    I bought 2 Starling 2 Max ( with voxl ) and flew about twices

    But recently, i have serious flight accident.

    Incident Details is

    Symptom: Immediately after takeoff, the flight mode changed unexpectedly.
    Behavior: The drone suddenly surged upward and became completely unresponsive to throttle inputs.
    Outcome: It struck a building wall and crashed.

    After the crash, I attempted to retrieve the flight logs to investigate the root cause. However, the system failed to generate or save the standard flight logs for the specific time of the incident.
    I checked the VOXL Portal and found some logs (such Voxl-hub-logs and IMU logs), but the data is inconsistent. Some log files show activity, while others are completely empty for that time frame. Because of this missing and fragmented data, I am unable to determine the cause of the malfunction.

    Since the crash was caused by a total loss of control and the logs are incomplete, so I want to know How to proceed with a technical inspection

    I attached short screen records ( my laptop ) - screen records for accident

    I want to track down what this actually caused.

      @ggangmi What was the flight mode on takeoff and what did it unexpectedly change to? There should be logs in /data/px4/log. They may be incomplete or maybe even corrupted if the drone lost power in the crash but there should be something there. The logging starts when the drone is armed.
