Helloooo folks! Quick on me: Fly several CP heli's (which, are now for sale due to quad bug and the glorious art of FPV :lol: ) Picked up a Phantom in person from Century Heli a few weeks ago... GAME ON. Already upgraded to T-motors and CF props. Flown it about 8 times with no issues, performed flawlessly, but all real close and in my backyard (acre). My Fatsharks showed up, so now I'm ready to venture out there and get crazy. I've searched, read, read and read some more, but still not clear on this issue. Installed Naza Assistant and I'm nervously ready to plug in the phantom.
I've read some stories of flyaways or loss of control and guys insisting that 3rd position to MANUAL helped them gain control and return the rig. (I immagine this would work good IF you had a good video signal and KNEW where you were, but what if you lost orientation and or video?)
I've read some stories that setting the 3rd position to FAILSAFE is the way to go, just flip the switch and rely on Naza to bring her home. (this method certainly puts your phantom in the hands of the Naza gods...)
Just wondering if there's a concensus out there on the best setup, resulting in more successful RTH's. Really appreciate responses, this site and the great commeraderie!
