  • I purchased the AVATA 2 a few days ago. I have flown it a few times. But the RTH does not work. It just sends the drone down to land, it does not return home. I tried going back in the DJI Assistant to go back to an older firmware but I don't have an option for that. Seems like a software issue. Any thoughts on what I can do?

Hope you are atleast 100m away when you trigger the RTH. Also, ensure that you have RTH selected under safety -> advanced menu. Before you fly, ensure you have a Home point recorded notification.

Hi there, thank you for reaching and we do apologize for any inconvenience caused. Kindly take note that the aircraft cannot return to Home if the GNSS signal is weak or unavailable and the aircraft will automatically descend or land. Also, make sure to set the RTH altitude before each flight.

You may get more information on the RTH Procedure in the User manual from pages 44 to 46. I've also shared the link below for your reference.

Thank you for your understanding and support.

I had my Avata 2 ascending to high attitude instead of descending after I hit the return to home yesterday several times.  It was about 40metre high, after I hit RTH, It flew up to 250 metres several times. Firmware all updated. Can someone pls help?

Make sure the RTH altitude is set accordingly in the app

Post the flight log.
In what part of the RTH process were you expecting the drone to descend ?
Was obstacle avoidance enabled during the RTH, if so did it detect obstacles ?
As pointed out by AJ, what was the RTH height set to ?
