Good Video Alex. You're looking a bit relaxed there at the end in your chair. Your dog didn't seem to mind you dropping your FPV down in there. Good job sir!!

There's no chair but a rock

and my pug had once a close encounter with my first Mavic (simply attacked the bird at some 30 sm above the ground) and have a mark on his nose and is No interested in drones ever since

I guessed you would land where you launched from.

Exactly - But not easy to spot it from the air

Thats why RTH is so nice to have.

I guarantee that this will be the last RTH for the drone

That was cool, I have to give FPV another chance. . . . I have tried it a couple times in high mountains and I "think" the extra turbulence messes it up without full stabilization, big jitters often. I'll have to try it somewhere more friendly. I did a landing like that yesterday myself. I did my best to center the RTH point exactly in the middle of the opening in the trees! Just n case. . . but did not need it, thank god.

DJI FPV is my drone of choice for the mountain because of the wind - yes horizon is tilted but I am confident I'll have it back usually

and also about landing in dense trees I prefer not going down vertically as the camera cant face direct down and go diagonally thru the forest
