You don't need to lose the drone to test this. Just set RTH to Hover, fly out 100' or so where you can see the drone & it is safe to land, then power off the RC. The drone will then enter the Hover state until the battery reaches 10% at which point it will land. You can turn the RC back on at any time if you want to regain control.
this is from DJI ... so if you are right.. and again.. I know that you have been flying these for awhile.. especially your phantom videos.. but if you are correct than this statement by DJI is flat wrong and needs to be corrected.. quite clearly states that if Loss of RC is set to hover and low battery kicks in .. as long as that is set to RTH it will
Failsafe RTH:
Failsafe RTH happens when your drone loses signal for 3 seconds when using the remote controller or 20 seconds if using Wi-Fi. When it kicks in it will do one of three things depending on how you have set it up. Firstly, if you have it set to RTH then it will ascend to the set RTH height and start to fly back to you, and once you get the signal back, then you can cancel it. Secondly, if you have it set to Hover then your drone will just hover in its current position, so you can walk towards it and re-establish your signal. However, if you fail to re-establish your signal and the Battery RTH is triggered then the drone will either return home or land depending on your Battery RTH settings. Thirdly, it can be set to land, so it’ll just land in its current position. |
