Hi there,
here is an report and advice for all, who walk and fly with their inspire:
I recently hat to follow a target in a convertable car while fiming a scene. And althought I had +30% power left the RC warned me, that the inspire will return home?!
Checking the power (30%) I was confused and did not realize what will happen next. (I was not ahead of drone ) After 10s warning, the inspire turned arround a flew back directly to the launch position, which was about 2,5km back.
What next: Unfortunatly I cruized at that moment of the incedent at 2m altitude. Myself I was sitting on the backseat of the car right behind at the direct line between the inspires position and the launch location. So I faced an automatic flying home device with almost full speed. Thank you - Bummer!
Reaction: On impulse I pushed pitch back and up and the inspire stopped and climbed. Afterwards I manually landed the device at that position.
Problem: First of all, we had to retake the scene.
Second, there is no Pilot follow option at inspire's pilot app. So do never forget to press new return position every 2min when fly&follow.
Third: I you see a warning on your screen remeber to press the home button within 10s to abort the automatic fly home function. I seems strang to abort the function with the home button, but it is the only button whiach makes sense at that moment!
So, hopefully my advice avoided you to experience the same situation. AND: I hope there is a pilot follow home option soon.
