Last evening I was flying my P3P in the desert, and it there was quite a bit of wind. On my 3 rd and final flight for the evening I allowed it to go to far downwind before attempting to return to home.
Realizing this I flew the craft to within about a 100 ft of a paved road intending to land, then drive over and retrieve my drone. I also should note the remote is bleeping the low battery warning.
The problem is, every time I would cancel the automatic return to home, it would simply re-initiate the return to home which incidentally was the opposite direction of where I intended to land my drone. I would cancel it again and again and again, it was really becoming a problem, in that I was trying at the same time to land the drone SOFTLY !
I landed the drone twice, and then it simply went airborne again and needless to say I was getting quite frustrated. So consequently, I would up landing it rather hard, and did some damage to the gimbal. I finally put it into ATI mode, and I'm not sure if that's what finally got it give up the RTH function or not. But in any event, it did finally give up. It really is a fantastic feature and I would have never envisioned it being a problem........but it was last night
Is there a way, a proper way, to cancel the return to home so it doesn't reinitiate repeatedly ? |
