I often fly from an abandoned airport, atop a mountain in Nevada City, CA. On this particular mission, I had flown a total of 12,018 ft., and triggered RTH with the Mavic at a distance of 2,477 ft. from its home point. I rarely use RTH (ok, I never use RTH), but wanted to see how well the precision landing feature performed. About half way into the return flight, I figured I'd start recording video - just in case it got even close to its take-off point. Using an orange landing pad in the middle of a gravel runway gave the Mavic a perfect target. Well, it got close - like 4" close! Color me amazed! It landed with all of its feet inside of the inner white circle of the landing pad, just inches from its original take-off point. Who knew?
