SO I've been reading hours on end all I can find on the fly away topic, wondering if there isn't a or multiple methods to prevent it or stop it once it happens.
So far, it seems to me all posts say 'there was nothing I could do to stop it flying off.' Some even stating that switching to atti mode made no difference. The most plausible reason I have found is that home position is set wrong, maybe even 10-15 miles away. So when RTH starts it heads out. But I cannot see why switching to atti mode would not stop this in its tracks?!? Atti mode is NON gps, just using compass and barameter. So if an errant home point is set, switching to atti mode MUST stop it.
Could it be that in the adrenaline flowing excitement of the fly off folks report trying atti but actually did not?
Could it be the errant home gps position is NOT the issue?
What am I missing?
