[QUOTE="Toxie, post: 92081, member: 17660"] I am working on the recovery methods. Can you elaborate on the 'find my drone ' feature for I am not aware of that one.. Last flight record is being evaluated and after loading the log ( txt file), I for one cannot understand why given that it recorded RTH location before it's flight....upon calling it back on 3 occasion and confirming it was heading back..on all occasions requested, when in actual fact it climbed above the set MAX altitude authorized in my Go 4...and instead of coming back flew away. Totally weird when 4 hours earlier in a different location Sparky shined for being so obedient, pleasant and sharing some breath taking view points. Anyhow....focus now is to try to locate and recover the drone....but something is definitely wrong somewhere.... Call RTH 3 times and log shows it agreed and confirmed ...but elected to aim for the Moon (when RTH is set at 20 Meters) and meters (300 +) away from home (when Max permited away is 120 meters)...hence obviously...Sparky ran out of juice and collapsed..now the search is where did it colapse and touch wood did it do so from 40 feet drop ( according to log ??) and softly drop... in the forest....challenge galore and hope galore in the same prayer at this end. Bottom line there is some obvious pit fall in the DJI claims I am finding them on the hardway. Obstacle avoidance being the first one that I finally understood today and verified in my afternoon flight ( not the evening fight)....Wind....if Sparky detects wind ..it reacts as if there was a building in front of it.....no way can you move forward in that direction... And a couple more but moot point if my Sparky experience ends here after 4 days of ..dare I say fly ????!! [/QUOTE]
