Hey All,

[updated just now to confirm to correct template for reporting problems]

Problem?
I was flying over water, then I hovered at one point (about 3/5m height) to take photos - then the RC said "Aircraft Disconnected". It started the RTH but then hovered over the home point about 2m high. I'd normally leave it land when battery ran out but as was near waters edge I wanted to get it down, I switched off the RC then back on and it then reconnected fine and I was able to land safely. I'd like to know what happened (maybe too low the water?). I've attached my flight log. If you guys could take a look that would be great, thanks!

Was unit in a crash? No

What have you tried so far? N/A (it returned to home - but I'd like to know why it happened)

What device are you using ( iphone , ipad, Samsung , etc)? Android (Huawei)

What firmware are you running ( aircraft, remote controller)? I'll check (though offhand the only time I upgrade was when I bought my MA around end Jan 2019)

What Go app version are you using? v4.3.20

Any modification? (if so what) No

Did you change anything or install any apps? (if so what) No

Do you have a video or pictures of the problem? (if so post link) No

Thanks Ro
