[QUOTE="grounded, post: 117458, member: 20620"] I was flying this past weekend and did lose sight of the little guy, but I was not much concerned due to the safety net of RTH. However, shortly after initiating RTH my phone informed me that the RTH had been cancelled and I was now in ATTI mode (for the first time in my life). So I went from unconcerned to total panic in a split second. I did gather myself enough to find an old warehouse on the visual screen, and I figured out that if I just pointed him towards that he wouldn't be too far away. Then I had another bright idea and re-initiated RTH. The phone said it was working but I had my doubts, and had about given up on him when at last I heard that whirring sound coming down right above me. My questions are (1) would RTH have re-initiated on its own if he was able to re-acquire satellites?, and (2) if the RTH home point is taken automatically on takeoff, is there any point in going into the drone setup screen and doing it manually? Many thanks to all for this good information, and I welcome any feedback - I still have a lot to learn. [/QUOTE]
