rokit said:so does the phantom 2 actually go back to its home point when it reaches it low level battery warning? Cause all the answers I'm getting is that, it just auto lands itself at its current location.
Thank you!

rokit said:I appreciate the info!
but how come I was told it would return home once it reaches its low battery level. I guess I was lied to. How would one know when the battery is low when your flying out and about w/o an iOSD? I think RTH at low level indicator would be such a great feature. I mean its just a firmware change right and setting the appropriate low level percentage on the assistant software.

My opinion until you get FPV with iOSD and can watch the battery level that way, it would be smart not to fly your Phantom so far away you can't see those indicator lights.

But if your lights haven't changed you should run thru computer again. I actually found the naza mode would be more of a benefit to a beginner than the Phantom mode. I lost (and found) mine due to not having home lock avail, and as last resort I cut off transmitter and she still didn't come home. Naza has both and without shutting off remote.
When you see the first red lights, I would strongly suggest bringing it in to a location that if it fails or lands you can get to it. I've been reading about battery problems and now just starting having exact issues, mainly drastically short flying time and auto landing within a minute or two of the first red light warning.

I use an egg timer.
