I hate to say this to a person with DJI in front of their name but NO NO NO!
It is a horrid and one of the most dangerous as far as injury goes to fly indoors with GPS on.
If you fly indoors with any mode but ATTI, you better have some gear on to be safe.
EXAMPLE REASONING: First let's start with the basics. Bad to no GPS signal indoors. I have a large house. In the middle of it, I get no GPS signal but I should;t be in GPS modes.
The WONDERFUL and one of the reasons I love the DJI birds like the Phantom is because of the VPS (Visual Positioning System) that works in ATTI mode. Think of it like a GPS for your house, or warehouse or wherever you are indoors but with no GPS. It is those cameras on the bottom of the bird. The VPS, the cameras on the bottom of the bird have ocular visual systems that can "See" the ground now and I'm told that somehow it can see horizontally now as well.
So it will let the bird know when you are coming close to the ground to slow down for landing and things such as this.
If you were say in Sport Mode and you brushed across the RTH button and you have your FailSafe height set to even just 20 meters, it will race to your ceiling at about 50mpg and absolutely obliterate your bird to the point where you will use all of your DJI care. You won't even be able to find all of those pieces.
A UAS with GPS indoors is a cardinal sin. DO NOT DO IT!
So to answer your question make sure you are flying in ATTI mode with VPS ON. If you don't have VPS on, it could drift. Don't land on things like glass tables because the VPS system is confused by strange patterns and clear surfaces (like water).
Off box.
Fly safe. |
