[QUOTE="Northwood Mediaworks, post: 105437, member: 6411"] The wind will take it wherever it wants in Atti mode if you do not take over and manually fly. Sorry for your loss, but it could have been recovered if you had simply pushed forward on the right stick once in Atti mode. If there was absolutely no wind, which is unlikely, it would hover in place and eventually land in place. I am guessing that the wooden deck had some metal hiding in or around it which might have messed with the compass before you took off. Keeping it in line of sight at all times is also a good way to avoid the mystery somewhat. Looking at your log now. [/QUOTE]
