    Replacing my lost Mini

    When I took a look at the settings and educated myself after the fact, it looks like that’s the preset RTH height on Lichti. Good pilot protocol would always go check your RTH prior to taking off

    Replacing my lost Mini

    So, looking at the Mavic mini... Will the price go under $400 any time soon for a starter package? With Mini2 out, maybe I wait out the summer and see if the original gets cheaper.

    The little thing will fly into the stratosphere if you let it! I only go high enough to clear the nearest obstacle, the wind can change drastically in even a few meters. Sending you drone to the next county. My mishap happened because I was stupid and didn't take the time to set RTH altitude.

    20 °F Mini Flight over Newly Frozen Lake - Update: AIRDATA

    Is there any permenant damage to the batteries at that temp? What are the drawbacks. Up here in Dakota, it would be nice to fly in sub-freezing temps.

    Testing and have fun with the RTH on map function Mavic Mini.

    So...I'm thinking it's not to far of a stretch to call this feature "follow my RTH".
