      In between program step the propeller stop and start:
      Example of behavior:

      1. Take Off
        Propellers start drone lift off.
      2. Hover 5 seconds.
        Drone hovers propeller all OK.
      3. Move forward 1 second.
        All propellers shut down for 1 second.
        All propellers start up and drone scoot forward across the floor for 1 second.
      4. Land
        All propellers shut down for 1 second.
        Propeller turn all then turn off.

        I thought about the battery. Same result with fully charged battery.
        Also, same program, with same commands worked the day before.
        I have tried all combinations to try and determine issue.
        i.e. Hover with 100% power. Still shuts off in between commands.
        Behavior is like program command steps execution is slow to load next step and during the step load/setup process the motor is shut off.

        I am returning the drone. Have already put in enough time troubleshooting a brand new piece of equipment. Worked beautifully out of the box. Next day worked for about 1st hour then issues. First major drifting, then propeller shutdown in between program commands.

        I am open to another try of your product once you resolve your quality/reliability issues.

          Hi @ronbolts ,
          It sounds like your CoDrone is running low on battery, but just to be sure can you attach a screenshot of your code? If you are experiencing skipping commands, try including a wait block for half a second to a second between your move commands. Let me know if this still does not resolve the issue!
