AAIB investigation to DJI Matrice 210, (UAS, registration n/a): Dropped vertically onto a building due to propulsion error, Bury Road, Chedburgh, Suffolk, 28 July 2019. The AAIB Final Report was published on 9 January 2020, and the following is the summary from it:
"The DJI Matrice 210 quadcopter small unmanned aircraft (SUA) was being operated at night over a small industrial estate in light rain. About 20 minutes into the flight the aircraft dropped suddenly without warning from a height of 70 metres (230 feet). The aircraft hit the corrugated roof of a building and was destroyed; there was some impact damage to the roof.
The remains of the aircraft were sent to the manufacturer for examination. They determined that the accident was caused by a propulsion error of the no 2 motor but were unable to determine the reason for it.
