I had similar thing happen the first time I used waypoints - flew right into my house trying to get to waypoint 1. I now go to waypoint 1 manually before starting the mission (after double checking speeds and altitudes on all waypoints). Lessons learned. Glad nobody was injured! :-) Like many...

2nd time this happened
I started my Mavic Pro from my wood deck as I usually do, waited for it to go into GPS mode, went up to look around, it was too dark to see anything really, so I RTH'd. But it started to come down, and headed in wrong direction, so I switched to S mode. It was erratic...
