Temporary Loss of Aircraft Control in Manual Mode

Temporary Loss of Aircraft Control while Flying in a Manual Flight Mode is defined as an aircraft that is momentarily behaving unexpectedly, dangerously, or abnormally while in a manual flight mode (Loiter or Position). Different from turbulence, loss of control typically results in a large, noticeable correction maneuver/attempt by the aircraft that saturates the aircraft's control authority. It is most likely the result of abnormal external influence on the aircraft or an issue with the aircraft itself.

Example: Chipped or broken propeller blade, incorrectly attached payload.
