Mavic 3 Flyaway

[Meta4]

I did later discover that the RC Pro was in airplane mode but I am not sure that contributed to the flyaway.

Whether your RC pro is/was in Airplane Mode would make no difference to anything.

I think that's right. The flyaway was caused by me mishandling the controls at the time.
That is by pushing the return to home button twice and possibly other missteps. I did learn from this incident
and I have had some great flights completely incident free since then.
