First: I can't explain the fly away.
I have an idea, maybe there is a strong radio source, somewhere near by.
Or even a microwave radio relay, you flew into.
"Current RTH route will pass through a no fly zone (I had checked the map and saw no 'no fly zone's)"
I had some of these "current route will pass through NFZ" myself, even in a rubber plantation.
So there seems to be an issue with that.
I think it can be GPS trouble.
And to this:
"Shortly after it flew away a very small plane flew over nearby. (This was surprising to me as the area looked clear according to the map)."
I actually had that surprise too, one day.
In my case it's privat sightseeing flights, by Cessna and small Helis.
Scaring for me was only, that there flightpath is very deep, approximate just above (I hope) of the legal flight height for drones.
More scaring was, just 2 minutes before I saw the plane just a little bit higher as my own position, I flew, crossed its path twice.
And coming from a take of ground about 80m higher, as the ground where the plane aproximately flew under/just about in 200m height, it could have been a unwanted encounter.
I actually found it on my video, when I watched it, BELOW my drones height.
Which again, height over high ground (Spark), a "bit" extended, to height over (about) sea level (Cessna), approximate a little lowered for the customer?
I actually could find a map, online, with these commercial sightseeing pathes.
By the way I found out, that DJI NFZ map is missing minimum one heliport and one private airfield in the surroundings here.
As is UAE forecast
