Pretty awesome footage there.
I filmed some redwoods a couple months ago .I couldnt get any gps signal on the forest floor, so It told me no gps but was safe to fly and switched me to atti. I climbed slowly up the trunk of a tree as there was not much of an opening, halfway up the tree dji go app told me i had gps connection, I thought nothing of it except cool. I got up to the top at around 300 feet and I panned around looking at the top of the forest. Then as I was descending at around 150 feet it lost the gps connection and went into atti mode, when that happened the bird started to drift sideways as I was descending, freaked me out and with zero time to react I clipped leaves of a tree about 15 feet above ground and landed safely. I obviously learned nothing because I flew down the dirt/mud road I was on a ways and proceeded to fly up another redwood a couple hundred feet still in atti when it went back to gps connectivity and when it dropped gps signal again the phantom drifted straight sideways into the crook of another redwood branch, footage shows it did a 360 degree flip and was wedged in the crook of the tree branch, I remember looking straight up and thinking it was probably over for my bird, I tried a spin and lower move and it corkscrewed out the bottom of the branch and came down and landed. The lesson I learned is if dji go app cant get a gps signal and switches to atti mode you should probably switch the bird manually to atti, so it dosent switch in and out of gps signal and toss the bird around when you arent ready for it.
