    I've wondered about that too. From the research I've done it looks like it is *ok* to fly in a national forest area, is long as there isn't a recreation fee, and you don't fly over a protected wildlife or primitive area or around birds or wildlife (see...

    Mavic Fly Away this evening. Shes Gone!

    So you saw the files and just couldn't save them? You don't need to sync, you just need to be able to browse the app shared data. Maybe there is someone in your household a little bit better at computers that can help?

    Like I said, you need to hook the device you flew the drone with (ipad right?), into a real computer with a keyboard (assuming you have one), using a usb lightening cable. You'll need itunes installed on the computer. You can access the logs within itunes on the computer. First you open up...

    I think healthy drone can autoupload with DJI GO app, so he probably did that rather than obtain the txt file and upload the file manually.

    You'll need to hook your ipad into *real computer* (e.g. desktop or laptop with keyboard) with itunes installed. You'll need a cable to do this. Once you do this, you'll be able to access the flight log data.

    My mavic tried to land in the Ocean!!! NO downward control to land?

    The drone thought (incorrectly) that it was close to ground when you did that. If you hold the stick down for a second or two on land when the drone is close to ground it will issue an autoland if you have VPS on (try it!). That's probably what happened here (just like msinger suggested).

    I've attached historical weather data from NWS. Looks like wind was out of the north at 10-14 MPH. If the battery failed, it probably would have fallen somewhere around here:

    If he had return to home obsticle avoidance turned on, it will avoid objects even if it's in sport mode. I think by default that is off though.

    Good question. I wonder if he went looking for it immediately or waited for it to return home.

    Do you know what the speed/direction of the wind was at the time? If the battery gave up (which it kind of sounds like it did), I'd imagine it would probably drift with the wind in an autorotation away from the point where you lost connection.

    Thinking about trying this. How do you take manual control of the aircraft? They only mention PAF switch on phantom 4 in docs.
