    Breaking now! Return sticks to midpoints first.

    This happens to me often. It also has an interference issue. But seems to fly OK. Now I can't fly at all because of some darn init map error after the update but that's another thread.o_O UPDATE found the issue with missing init map 0n Android note 4... had developer agent active. if anyone...
