P2 arrived today, and since we have steady 25-35 mph winds, suffering through reading the literature instead of running outside and flying it like a crazed 7th grader not knowing what he is doing.
My question is, what are the pros and cons of setting up S1, 3rd position to activating failsafe? I understand the main benefit, if you get disoriented, toggle down and wait for it to come home, always having the option of toggling back up and resuming control. This sounds great, especially to a novice. So what are the downsides? Why is this not default?
A side question, failsafe means, if home position was recorded, return home at a ht of at least 20m and then land, and if home position not recorded or flying without GPS, landing wherever it is. Right?
THANKS!
