If you don't have a GPS lock (home point recorded on the map) the drone will use it's downward vision positioning system to hold it's position in a hover. This is very dependant on sufficient light and the surface/pattern of the ground which is why flying indoors can lead to crashes and where the prop guards come in handy. If VPS is also lost with no GPS the drone will auto switch to ATTI mode and this will cause it to drift in line with the wind. I upgraded my iPhone 7+ to IOS 11.2 recently and this caused a few issues too. I refreshed the firmware in Assistant 2, the NFZ geo fencing in GO 4 and reinstalled the app on my iPhone then recalibrated the remote controller sticks, IMU and compass - no problems since. There seems to be a definite link between the IOS updates and the drone - everything seems to need to be reconfigured as if new each time Apple update - it's getting quite boring. |
