Thank you, good post
I have wondered, this feature really only works effectively if you have contact or connection with your drone, correct? Meaning, if you loose signal/contact and it flies off then this feature will not work as you described, correct?
Please clarify that for us please?
You are correct, it only works if you still have contact with the aircraft. So if it flew off, then the last position it reported will be shown. If the battery runs down, the same applies, it will only show the last reported position. One problem is, the battery will run down relatively quickly, even though the motors may not be running, as the battery is powering the whole aircraft, including the camera, which use a lot of power. So, it can be concluded that is you want to try and locate your aircraft, you need to do it pretty quickly before the battery is flat. |
