    Aircraft behavior for simultaneous lost link and gps signal loss?

    Thanks for sharing. Perhaps an academic overkill exercise, but I am really just thinking worse case scenario here for the purposes of a waiver to operate in a somewhat challenging urban canyon environment in controlled airspace. I am looking to operate over a pool area (about 200x200 ft)...

    Aircraft behavior for simultaneous lost link and gps signal loss?

    Interesting....OK so depending on the DJI GO settings, there are two possible aircraft behaviors when it loses both control signal ("lost link") and GPS signal simultaneously: A. Immediate autoland at the aircraft's current location ("Landing" setting -- the default) B. Hover and eventual...

    Aircraft behavior for simultaneous lost link and gps signal loss?

    Thank you for the quick response. OK so I now understand that the expected behavior is for aircraft to autoland immediately at its currently location if it loses both comm link and gps signal. This is good to know as I am trying to address risk mitigation for a "flyaway" in my request for...

    Aircraft behavior for simultaneous lost link and gps signal loss?

    Hi all, I operate a Phantom 3 Pro and I am looking for information on the expected aircraft behavior in a situation where the aircraft loses both comm link with the controller and gps signal (or gps becomes inoperative) at the same time. Based on the forum thread references below, my...
