rth

Greetings. First message here. I myself do not own a DJI product yet, but will most likely soon. I've been watching videos and following discussion threads for some time to see what the capabilities and occasional flaws (and their consequences) are. I do have a 'toy grade" drone that I practice...

Does anyone know if Precision RTH is disabled when switching between DJI Go 4 and Litchi? Here's what happened this morning. After a few days of no flying due to awful weather I went outside today. Did a full re-calibrate of IMU, Compass and Gimbal in DJI Go 4. Everything was good. Did an auto...

Just wanted to post a BIG POSITIVE for the Mavic Pro. Doing a small job at a high school yesterday, beautiful day, everything seemed normal. I had the Mavic hovering about 20 feet AGL and the controller signal dropped and stayed out. In two years of ownership, I have never had RTH kick in...

Hey guys, I am a newbie flying my MP and have question before I start messing with the settings. What would be the best approach on setting RTH if you are on a boat moving around islands and flying MP while on the go? I have a filming scenario taking off from a boat and following us until we...

SOLVED! check at the bottom ↓ Hi guys, I have a question about RTH feature and a cliff. Imagine we are at the top of a cliff of 150 meters over the sea, And we setup the RTH altitude at 50m, And we setup the homepoint there at the top And we fly our drone down the cliff, to 20 meters...

I initiated the RTH function when my Mavic was running low on battery. Halfway from returning home, it started to descend on its own before it was directly above me. Since there were obstacles of different heights all around me I tried to force it back up. But it got to a point where it wouldn't...

I am newbie to rotary wing ops. I am not looking to set a max range flight. But I have seen many posts of people who ran into difficulty in a RTH situation being told that they should descend to minimum safe altitude and proceed in sport mode at max speed to recover. My background is in fixed...

My goal is to ultimately video boats moving through the water. I realize the RTH point needs to be on solid ground. I've looked everywhere and cannot find an answer to this: can a RTH point be saved, like a way-point ? If I'm out on the water and need to change batteries then I'd need to...

I had my first Return To Home due to low battery and I was surprised that it did not climb first. It just went straight to home and luckily did not hit the peak of a roof that was about 2 feet under it. Is that the way it is? Just heads straight home? Thanks!!!

I think it is since last update I have very strange problems with my drone. I used to fly in the fields surrounding my home in Belgium which is not so far from an airport, but it is only class D airspace according to DJI software. In Belgium I'm allowed to fly on private property to a height of...

We just purchased a Mavic for a shoot in which we will be following ATVs along a mountain trail with trees all around us and above us (we'll be under the canopy). If the drone flies upward 20m for any kind of RTH, it's going to end up stuck in a tree. I'm unclear on why the minimum RTH is so...

I'm still getting my sea legs with my Mavic Pro and I don't understand why this happened. I was flying at an elevation of about 20 feet and hit the RTH button. It was only 10 feet or so from home at the time. But instead of moving into position and hovering, it immediately elevated -- it looked...

Today I had a precision landing failure that I cannot explain. I took off with 100% battery and 16 sats in GPS mode and selected precision landing. I have taken off from this very spot many times (pitchers mound on a baseball field) and have precision landed every time within inches. Mavic...

Hey all - I'm new to flying, but I've been cautious in beginner mode getting a handle on the settings and controls. Today I decided to play around a little more practicing manual landing and take offs and playing around with camera settings at relatively low alts outside of beginner mode. I've...

Hello! First time posting. So bought my Mavic about 3 weeks ago and out of the box it was perfect. Flew awesome. Never crashed, not even a hard landing. I am a pretty experienced pilot. Recently, the following issues started to appear: 1. RTH/Battery: I would be literally 10 feet from...

After setting RTH point to my controller, quad goes off to parts unknown upon initiation of the RTH command from my DJI Go 4 app. My suspicion is that somehow the home point was a GPS location set in the previous day's flight. As you can see, I attempted this twice (the two long rectangular...

I lost my drone about a week after I bought it. I posted to this forum the night it happened giving the flight info and everthing. When I woke up the next morning to go find it there had been an overwhelming show of support and help. I the drone was recovered and it was amazing! 5 days ago my...

Hi everyone, yesterday I was flying and notice a strange behavior when I press the RTH button on the controller, the mavic was at 29m (95,8 ft) of IMU altitude and 49m (160,6 ft) from the home point, the Return-to-Home altitute was 40m in the settings, but when I press the button the Mavic start...

I'm new to the world of drone flying and recently purchased a Mavic Pro. I'm capturing some great video but would like to fly my drone off a cliff and capture some video. So question is, my RTH is set to 50m, but if the cliff drop is 150m does the drone calculate the 50m from where it took off...

I attempted to fly to a friends place on Pensacola Beach. Stayed out over the water most of the way and got to their cove and lost RC signal. Had the RTH height set to 150 feet as I thought that was plenty high enough over the water. Well, RTH course is a straight line to the home point, right...
