Which risk increases significantly when a quadcopter's control algorithm suffers from phase lag?

A)Oscillations become dangerously amplified
B)Battery drains power very slowly
C)Brushless motors overheat excessively
D)GPS lock becomes very unreliable

💡 Explanation

Unstable oscillations are amplified because negative feedback lags the error signal, resulting in positive feedback; the **Nyquist stability criterion** explains this. Therefore, instability arises, rather than stable damping behavior with corrected actions or unrelated motor/GPS issues.
