I usually have my drone RTH altitude at best 50 ft above the highest structure/tree. That way I know that if it is low in area, say in a field, and trees are between me and the drone, it will increase it's altitude to that predetermined height before doing it's RTH. Dylan in this video does a good job explaining the RTH (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqwNSY_4XSk). PS, I know this is for the Spark, but still a good teaching video.
Reason for this is to make sure your bird was not confused on doing a RTH (by it saying home point recorded). If by chance you get the bird up before that is recorded, and you have already flown out a bit, that now is your RTH location, and not where you launched from. I would try the video, making sure of your low battery setting, and go to a good open field and try flying again and see if you have the same results. When you get the low battery warning, get the bird started home. Let us know how this turns out.
I appreciate your advice and time. thank you.
Question: once it goes into RTH mode, is the controller ignored? It would not listen to my stick suggestions. Stay low, stop, do not go there... land now, please... |
