Thanks. I misunderstood your first reply to mean I should have been flying at 400 feet. I always stay well below that height and was very concerned when the drone exceeded it doing the RTH. I cancelled the RTH immediately and descended. My RTH is set at 200 feet.

I was at about the RTH preset height. I think Good Santa's idea is right on. Next time I'll turn obstacle avoidance off until I'm close to landing.

Yes I'm aware of max altitude. The drone did it itself while trying to RTH. I stay below the 400 foot limit. If I never flew closer to the airport than 5 miles I would need to drive at least 4 miles every time I flew. I fly very cautiously at low altitude and DJI Fly reminds me I am in a...

No my RTH height was about 200 feet.

Just curious why 400 feet. My area is flat, nothing above 60 foot telephone poles. I'm about a mille from an airport and helicopters fly over a lot. They are supposed to stay above 500 feet but I think they sometimes dip below that, so I usually try to stay below about 300 to be safe. It is also...

thank you. I'll do that.

Thanks!

My first night flight with my Air 3s went fine except for RTH. I was about 1/4 mile from home at about 200 feet altitude and hit RTH. The drone seemed to be struggling to decide what to do, would fly toward home a short distance then increase altitude multiple times until it was approaching 500...

Hi All, I'm an old guy. I have an old Phantom 4 and recently got an Avatar 2 and an Air 3s. Lots of wind here on Kauai but the Air flies like a champ. I have a few questions I'll be posting. Glad to be here.
