DJI Guys, please help me understand this.
I was flying again just now before the darkness fell. All firmware, calibrations, etc....done!
One battery so not that much fly time.
Got the low battery warning and then shortly after that the 10 sec auto land warning.
At that moment I was some 40m from the take off point....and the I1 just started to fly away....I got scared but quickly realised that it was flying to home point.
Question is why didn't it go to a 20m height that I set up when going to Home point?
If I was only 5 meters north at 10sec countdown point, the I1 would have crashed into the cottage that was close by.
See on the images where according to APP the I1 landed while in fact it landed at Home spot!
Thanks!


See photos...

i was probably at about the same height....while it should have climbed to 20m....
I was lucky....it could have ended up in the house!

I wish when that 10 second countdown happens it would majorly beep or shout  as i can't hear it over the low battery warning and although i tested out the rth today an seem to be ok i just don't trust it, as the last time i missed the 10 sec countdown it turned 5ft off the ground and shot off so quick nearly taking some ones head off back to the homepoint and also just missing either side of a gated driveway i have that on film aswell some where
