while flying in woodland , over a stream only 130 m from the home point my mavic air 2 hit 25% battery and did a automatic return to home.
It flew up into the trees and crashed down into the stream. There was no option to cancel the return to home. I got a low battery warning at 31% but because i walked with the drone while it was flying low and slow (I was inly 10m from it when it crashed) i ignored the warning. I know the drone doesnt know this and calculates the return journey to the home point including the ascent\desent , still RTH kicking in at 25% to cover 130m to the original home point seems off. I was able to fish the drone out of the stream /disassemble it and wash it out with ipa. After a good drying all seems ok with it bar the battery - jury still out on that. Aways just in case I'm missing something I attach the log if anyone wants to have a look and see did i miss something
