Anyone else notice it seems to take longer for RTH to kick in once signal is lost to controller than on Mavic Pro 1?
 
That may be due to the AC backtracking, hoping it will re-aquire the signal it had within the last 60 seconds.
 
Interesting, is that what it does? Does it fly backwards?

No - after more than 2 seconds of uplink loss it should turn and retrace its path for 60 seconds looking to reacquire connection with the RC. If it does reacquire the signal it will stop and hover for 10 seconds waiting for control inputs; if none occur then it will RTH directly from that location. If it does not reacquire signal after 60 seconds of retracing its path it will immediately RTH directly.
