[QUOTE="Ted Schoenfelder, post: 43194, member: 7687"] CDS: How close were you to the power station near Robson Industries when you started to lose the drone? Looks like there may have been some metal working factories in the vicinity too, either or both could result in drone yaw/compass errors. We don't have your whole flight track so it is difficult to know what led to the problem. The yaw error shows up immediately in the files you uploaded so it likely started much earlier in the flight? Be helpful to know when errors first started showing up and the proximity of the drone to that power station. In addition, I believe the manual says if you lose RC connection the drone initiates RTH in 3 seconds, however, due to the yaw related error and given your were in ATTI mode, the drone would not know its current location and therefore would not initiate a RTH because it would not know where "home" is. I believe the drone simply initiates an immediate landing once "critical battery" level is reached. Glad you were able to locate it with msinger's help and his extended trajectory on the map.
