By way of explanation, if you have a low count of satellites locked, your drone may think it has an initial position, records Home, but, due to the low count, this could be off by 20m say. Then as it ascends, it gets another satellite, finds where it thinks it is, realises that this isn't the same place as the incorrectly recorded Home and so moves off to correct. More height, more locks more correction, all the while panic sets in. If a Return to Home is initiated, the drone then goes off to the wrong place and might not be seen again in one piece.
I aim for 12. I think I did read somewhere there was a reason for this arbitrary number but can't remember what it was. |
