    Quarry flight with sudden ATTI mode

    Quarry flight with sudden ATTI mode

    Very insightful. Yes, I was in a Walmart parking lot 4 feet from my bumper I also was compensating with the stick to one side to make it go in the intended direction I'm making all kinds of hasty mistakes. Today, the RTH point updated 130' away and 50' up I need to be more patient and let the...
