Why Does Mavic 2 RTH @ End of Waypoint Mission When It Should Land?

[jelarv]

For a DJI Intelligent Flight Mode Waypoint mission, I've programmed it to land at the last waypoint, but when it loses its signal it returns to home instead (I've tested this multiple times and it does it every time). I have it set to continue the mission if the signal is lost. I don't think it's a drone problem, because I've had 3 different M2Z over the past year and the DJI Go 4 app Waypoint feature has not followed all of the missions settings in other instances. I sense it's just poorly programmed software relative to the available the user can choose.

It would be great to hear from anyone who has experienced the same problem.

I cannot explain this but I use Waypoints 2.0 on the Mavic 2 Pro all the time and I suavely program the drone to return to just above me at the final stop, where I can easily see it to land manually.

If I'm not mistaken, the RTH overrides Waypoints

I think any stick manipulation will cancel an intelligent flight mode, so yes. Correct me if I am wrong.

Dale, that is great idea for a final waypoint. Thanks
