Hi,
I have been having a problem with my return to home feature. The last few times I tried the RTH it seems confused. It turns in the direction of the home point ascends to the proper altitude and starts heading home but then abruptly stops (like something is in its' way) increases altitude, starts returning, stops abruptly, increases altitude starts to head home, stops abruptly etc. etc. It has done this the last 3 times I have tried the feature and all flights were in different areas. In the flight log it says "braking to avoid obstacle". I was not flying into the sun, there was no obstrucyion and the sensors were clean. It even acted this way with OA off.
Has anyone else experienced this and if so how did you fix it?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks for reading!

Are you flying on the edge of a NFZ?  This can cause such behaviour when you reach the boundary

thanks guys
Yes disabling my sensors is the ONLY way it works but I sure don't want to have to do that in an emergency.
I am not near a NFZ either
