Drone goes haywire, climbs and plummets to earth

Phantom 2 drones were known for their ability to take off with a mind of their own. Called "fly aways", most Phantom owners know the feeling when their high priced electronics rapidly ran off with their GoPro attached. If you are lucky enough to find the drone afterwards, you end up with a damaged copter and footage of what it all looked like. Luckily, this drone crashed before reaching the nearby forest. It plummeted into a snowbank and became buried. If the blinking lights had not given away its position, it may not have been found until the spring thaw.
