Purchased my first drone (P4P) and have been exploring it over the past few weeks. On 1/8, I headed out at sunset to take photos but decided instead to shoot a video of the coast of our New England town.
I used the Litchi app on my iPad Air and went straight out 4,000 feet and then got the dreaded 'disconnected' message. I don't recall the warning that the Litchi threw out but it initiated a return to home. I stupidly saw the flashing RTH button and...pressed it. Thankfully the drone responded to commands and I piloted it back.
I have my log on healthydrones.com and was wondering if I was pushing the limits - though I doubt it.
