Susan may have the basic answer...RTH will not occur automatically just because the app crashed. It is only when the UAV looses contact with the RC that RTH is triggered automatically. However, if no RTH is recorded before takeoff then all bets are off as to what will happen when that connection is lost bt RC & bird. It may go to a previous Home Pt or just fly off. I'd say all in all your bud was very lucky in how it turned out. Last note, drone will still fly under RC control without the app once airborne. DJI may require signing in to app to get started but it's not required after that, and even that seems to be up for debate as I've read others who say not so. They can fly straight off without signing in, but I believe that ends up restricting the bird to a distance and height beyond where this bird was. |
