Ok worked out how to see the flight log, and all the guesses are correct: home point set in wrong place, didn't exit poi before trying to manually land, OA was causing my problems. Will know better next time, thanks for all the comments!

I think you are right about the home point. But I was certain of its orientation, just trying to land manually. I think it must have still been in poi mode which confused it. If it happens again I will try the sport mode tip.

Thanks for the tip, have never yet used sport mode(too scared of accidents).

I was near the drone and clearly able to see it. Also I have an extended range antenna on the controller which I kept pointed towards the drone at all times. There was no evidence of any loss of signal (note corrected detail edited in original post).

Can anyone help, used my MPP today to film a property using the POI. The property had a lot of trees but I was able to take off from an open grassy patch.

Thanks, I thought it was the same thing. What's the difference? Does the Android 11 update affect Go 4 in the same way? Ok, just found this at Why the Mavic 3 will use the DJI Fly app and not DJI GO 4 - DroneDJ : "Slow and steady improvements Over the last few months DJI has improved the Fly...

Checked my app version(-> General settings -> About), says 4.3.37??? (Still using Android ver 10)

Hi, I have numbered my 3 batteries underneath with a permanent marker from 1 to 3. So I just always move on to the next highest number, and from 3 to 1.

I had a similar issue with my mavic pro platinum. I recalibrated the IMU , the problem seemed to go away.

Thanks for this post, I see what you mean in this video. I had the Mavic platinum taken back by the supplier and refunded because 1 of the batteries supplied was dead. I was thinking of getting the Mavic pro 2 after lockdown for the Hasselblad camera, but after your post, I think the Mavic Pro...
