HI
I have a new Phantom 4 and Return to Home hasn't worked out of the box. The retailer, Dronefly, of Westlake California and DJI refuse to take it back, even though it never worked. So, I would like help.
Descritpion- P4 boots up normally, it shows drone location, I do compass calibration manually, it shows GPS mode, a little voice comes on to confirm that home location is stored. So, it looks just fine. When I fly the drone icon leaves home location and flies away. If I press RTH on console or in software, the machine drops straight down, not returning to home location. I always specify manually that I want drone to return to Home location, not present location. I have tried flying in several locations, all rural, all away from anything.
Remedies- I downloaded DJI Assitant 2. I have installed and reinstalled software 3 times. I have also uninstalled and reinstalled DJI App on my Ipad mini 4 several times. Nothing seems to help
Oddity- I live in rural Maui, away from everything. There are no transmission lines, airports, commercial facilities etc. However, I sometimes get a warning that I am in a Class C flight area. Could this be related?
Any tips appreciated, Thanks
