Hi, I was testing a mode switch in my home, second floor.
BF config 10.10.0
Fireware 4.5.0 GepRC F222 AIO

Basically I was doing:
1 turn on arming
2 turn on fail safe mode (AUX4)
3 drone is deactivated
This is fine result as I expect. However,

1 turn on arming
2 rise up throttle a bit, but drone was still on ground
3 turn on fail safe mode swtich (AUX4), then drone is suddenly jump up and hit a ceilling!!😥😥😥😥
4 I took off props and reproduced this crazyness for sure.
This result does not make a sense because the minimum distance to home is set to 10m, so all motors should be stopped, instead of activating a fail safe mode. I believe this never happened before updating a new fireware.
Only one chance is that my AUX4 is applied nothing - turtle mode - fail safe mode. Then when switching to the fail safe mode, the switch needs to pass turtle mode in a sec. However, this accident never happened in an old fireware.

Does anyone know this causes by my wrong setting, or new fireware changes behaivers?
Thanks

After removing turtle mode from AUX4, I confirm that this problem is still happening!
