OK, now a drone story to illustrate my stupidity: A couple of weeks ago I was flying my Mavic with a couple of drone buddies. I looked down at my controller for a few seconds. When I looked up my drone was descending and flying backwards. I pushed the control sticks multiple times to stop it's motion, but the Mavic didn't respond to any of my controls. Just before reaching a state of panic, I realized (you guessed it) I was looking at the wrong drone. Because of all my stick movements, I couldn't find my own drone. I didn't want to use the "Return to Home" function because it might have ascended into a tree or power line. Fortunately, I was able to use the map and positioning function on the controller to safely bring my little bird home.
