[QUOTE="Deleted member 15525, post: 82620"] Are you sure the wind didn’t take it? I’ve had that happen with my spark and phantom 3 . Even if you have calibrated correctly you can still get compass errors. My experience was flying just barely vlos when I got the error and my phantom took off in the wind at 350 feet. Then I hit the stick forward not realizing how the aircraft was oriented and it took off in wrong direction.. I could barely see it.. the whole time I forgot I still had video and could have flown home that way. I’ve never had a compass error in which the remote didn’t work.. Rth is dangerous because it could fly to anywhere I think.. I avoid rth during any kind of error. Last resort .. it’s always better to fly home manually. [/QUOTE]
