Return to home altitude inside a building.

Fire Drone · Feb 13, 2017

Is it necessary to change the return to home altitude in the DJI go 4 app before flying inside of the building. I certainly wouldn't want The phantom 4 him to climb to 30m before trying to return to the home point inside of the building.
Thanks for any help

You won't have a problem unless you have a GPS connection inside of the building. To prevent any issues if the remote controller disconnects, set the "Remote Controller Signal Lost" setting to "Hover".

Is the building so big you'd need to activate RTH? Typically, RTH needs GPS... are you getting a GPS signal inside the building?

Are you worried RTH would self activate because you lost signal? If so, I'd be more worried about losing signal inside a building...

Just some additional thoughts to consider...

Thanks for the info. I occasionally fly inside of a large, open, high ceiling gymnasium. I was surprised when I checked my flights on healthy drone and discovered that the flight data was recorded and flightpaths shown in the Healthy Drone App. The building is completely closed and solid walls, no windows at all.
I don't often have the ocasion to fly inside of a building, but in the future if I do, I'll change the return to home function to Hover.
Thanks again for your help
