you do know at 20% auto land is activated unless you have changed it.

my p3a is set to 30% and 10%
does that mean when the battery gets to 30% it will auto land??
thanks

No.
Here's your manual:  https://dl.djicdn.com/downloads/ ... ser+Manual+v1.8.pdf
Go to the table at the bottom of p13 to see what it does mean.

You should get a low battery warning only at 30%

May I know what's the critically low battery level you set? Please PM me your DJI Account and issue time, I 'd like to check the exact status.

Yes I had a flight were my P3S was about a mile distance at around 1300 feet and lost both RC connection and App.  So I left the app closed and shot off the RC power.  This also means the drone uses RTH to home point and then started auto land.  My Auto land is set at 10% but once home point is reached drone also auto lands.  Once I saw my drone auto landing I started up my RC and App, reconnected then manually landed my drone.   My settings for lost signal are for the drone to RTH.
