    Return To Home Altitude Change - Lost Drone

    I lost my drone yesterday due to a lost connection so I am now trying to better understand the Return To Home sequence and specifically whether or not the altitude is adjusted once a RTH is initiated. I have been told that it will NOT descend to the RTH altitude set in the app and others say it...

    Picture perfect auto water landing was sickening.

    Beware fellow flyers. As a boat dealer, I use my drone primarily for shots of boats on the water for marketing purposes. After a successful mission, I initiated an auto landing and began walking back to my home point. Not hearing her return, I looked back and watched her land in the waterway and...

    RTH CA disable?

    I decided to test the return to home feature as I haven't done it since I got the phantom but on its way but I notice I got a message that collision avoidance where disable, is that normal for it to turn it off? I thought it would be the other way round it would turn it on if anything or maybe...

After reading much discussion and speculation, I decided to do some real time testing with Way point and Orbit missions to verify exactly what happens at the end of missions when battery gets low. I conducted...

The facts: Installed firmware P3X_FW_V01.05.0030. Upon opening the DJI app after firmware update, it asked for a compass calibration (which...

    Gimbal will not return to correct position

    Just bought the phantom 2 vision, used but only had a few flights and I could not fund a mark on it. I have found that when I set the camera angle in the app, for example say roughly 45 deg and mid point in the app control. As I fly or if I hold it, as the craft moves back and forth the camera...

    First flight issue with return to home P3P

    I just bought a p3 Pro. We updated the firm ware to the latest version ad I practiced on the simulator before my first flight. I have the P3 in beginner mode just until I get used to it. Today I tried my first flight. The temp was 37 degrees F. The wind was steady with occasional light/medium...

    Return to Home Issues

    I have an issue with RTH that started about four months ago. Even with 10-12 satellites, when I hit RTH one day, it just hovered for a while and was moving with the wind. It behaved like it was in ATTI mode. I was calm and used the small diamond on the monitor to fly back to the take-off...
