Hi,
My first post here so please excuse any newbie behaviour...
I got a new Mavic few days ago and today was flying around fields near me...
During flight the RC got disconnected and I lost control of AC completelly. The AC returned home... almost It was hovering above my head for 20mins while I was trying to connect back.
In the end I had to pull it down (I was afraid that it would just drain the battery and fall) and tried to switch the battery off (that also didn't work) so while trying not to get my hands ripped by running props just pulled the battery out.
After getting back home I tried it again with different battery and this time everything worked fine!
So, my question is: how can I trust that the same thing will not happen again (over a cliff or water...)?
What can I do to regain connectivity during the flight?
Note that I was't using my mobile at all - just the RC (when it works I use it with Samsung A5)
Best regards,
