RTH Button not working on controller

[Robert Olman]

My RTH button on my controller is not activating return to home. The RTH on my tablet screen does work. This just started today, I had used the RTH button on the controller a couple of time before, and it worked fine.

[Robert Olman]

@Robert Olman Funny you bring this up, i've flown easy 15-20 flights so far with my P3 and decided this evening to test out RTH and nothing! Is it something we need to activate?

I don't think we need to activate anything. I have used it before, and it worked fine.

@Robert Olman I'll try again tomorrow, do I press once or do I hold the button?

How far out are you when you trigger? I cant recall but i think there is a minimum distance for RTH.
hold and it will chirp a melody and a halo ring will appear around the button..

I notice on mine I have to sort of hit it quick then one long press for it to work right.

I press and hold mine for at least two seconds, it works ok. I am always out at least 1000 feet or more when I use it.
