I ran a test today with my
Mini 2 to verify accuracy of RTH. The reason was due to the fact that on an earlier flight, I gave the RTH command and the drone began to descent more than 20 meters from the recorded home point. I began the RTH well beyond the minimum 20 meter distance needed for the drone to find its homepoint and descent.
I calibrated the compass and the IMU before running the test.
Once calibrated, I initiated takeoff and the
Mini 2 ascended to it's 1.2 Meter height.
I hovered for at least 15 minutes and observed the distance from take-off (my homepoint that was declared by the controller before I began. I had at least 16 GPS sats locked.
During this test, I watched the "Distance" move from zero to approx. 7 meters. No input on my part. It's as if the initial take off point was changing.
Can anyone explain why this is happening?
My
M2Z would maintain 0.0 Meter reading by the
Mini 2 varies so much that I cannot rely on using the RTH to land.
