ok, obviously I am a newbee, had my P2V for about a week now and flown about 10 times, all great experiences! still learning to fly, the highest I have gone is about 300feet (not really sure where that sits in the full range, am I nearing the end or just barley out there) slowly going more and more. before I get to the point where the RTH kicks in, I want to make sure I fully understand it and have everything where it should be. as I am sure most of you experience the first time you turned the transmitter off, or lost connection with the unit, all you can do is pray everything is doing what its supposed to.
my power up procedure is as follows, (not sure it makes much difference except for turning the transmitter on before the P2V)
1. Transmitter
2. WIFI booster
3. P2V
4. iPhone
I do this because, (I have a dedicated iphone for the unit, no sim card) by the time the iphone connects to the wifi and I start the app and get it going, the P2V has acquired the GPS.
before I take off, I always look at my distance and make sure that it is 0 or really close to it, so I know it has acquired its home location.
am I just paranoid?
