Okay, wondering if anyone can help me with this. Attempted a Litchi Mission with Ph4p that failed about 1/4 of the way into the mission. When it did my controller indicated that it lost satellites. Check out the Airdata link that shows the drone stalling/hovering toward the end of record (click the "notifications" tab at the top of the map and then click the "High Definition Flight player" tab immediately above or below the map:
I find it interesting that according to the Airdata log it never lost more than 9 satellites. When this happened it stopped as shown in the link and apparently either I inadvertently switched to P mode from waypoint mode or the drone did on its own. The drone stopped and hovered. RC screen had a GPS signal error and GPS data error. I had video but despite it apparently being in P mode I could not move it. I don't honestly remember if the mode change was reflected on the controller or not. I do not recall flipping the manual mode switch either. Attempted multiple RTHs by the RC button but as you can see from the log it didn't work. Notice the speed drop from 11.4 mph to 0, the "deviation" change from .0008 to .0009 (anyone have any idea what this means or reflects???) and mode change from waypoint to P. Finally after what seemed like 10 minutes I could move the drone and was able to fly it back to the take off point during which the RC indicated 0 satellites. Really scary part was RTH failed despite multiple attempts. Also weird that AirData quit logging any data when I was able to move the drone and manually start to fly it back to the home point. The RC indicated the drone had 0 satellites on the manual flight home until I was able to land it, restart the RC and restart the drone and it then found satellites again... Any idea of a direction to go in with this? Thanks
