Hey all - lost signal on my P4 today while the app was trying to update. It's somewhere in the hills - i hope. Please let me know how to upload my last GPS coordinates so I can find it.
This flight record shows something I've not seen before.We searched in the area where the last GPS shows it was but didnt see it. Maybe someone snatched it. Maybe we missed it. Or, can you tell from the log if it was still trying to RTH or did it land?
Good luck hope you find,,,looks hard going on foot,,,you need a spare drone to look for white objects ,,,Goodluck againHey all - lost signal on my P4 today while the app was trying to update.

You flew out in a variety of modes, trying Sport and P-GPS and then switched to beginner mode.... .
I hope you can find it too. I see a lot of water nearby. Hopefully it didn't land there.Good luck hope you find,,,looks hard going on foot,,,you need a spare drone to look for white objects ,,,Goodluck again

Yes .. the home point would have stayed in memory and the Phantom wouldn't have descended and lost signal and attempted RTH if it was switched out of beginner mode and things would have been normal.In any event I am curious how the drone would respond if beginner mode were shut off before the signal was lost. Could the drone be controlled again or is it going to continue to force it's way back.
Is it possible that the obstacle avoidance saw an obstacle, was unable to overcome it due to the beginner mode altitude restriction, and decided to auto land instead of continuing onward?The end of the flight is interesting. Apparently, the P4 didn't run into the hill. Instead, after it lost connection it was descending and returning home when it decided to stop and land.
Might be something like that. Seems that the frontSensorDistance had a value for most of the flight which is kinda odd. At 396.8733 frontSensorDistance had been at 10 but then dropped to 4. Then 0.1 secs later the descent began.Is it possible that the obstacle avoidance saw an obstacle, was unable to overcome it due to the beginner mode altitude restriction, and decided to auto land instead of continuing onward?
