I've shared my opinion before but i want to hit it home with this!
Yesterday flying out on a run, going a direction i know i can make 4 miles then i usually lose video signal. So i get out 3 miles and still solid. But, it goes in and out of gps mode a few times (still 15 sats) once i get out 20'000 it starts to lose a couple bars,as expected in that area, and slips outa gps again. Then, dropped signal, everything! I hit RTH.
Now, not knowing if its heading back cause the atti/gps dance what do you guys do??
Heres what i did!
I flipped open the flytrex app, noticed it WAS flying straight towards me in a v-line slightly off from direction my controllers pointing and i was able to fly it "quickly" back with NO pilot app until i regained signal!
Come on now!! Tell me what your tracker does! The thing sells itself.
(If i had relied on RTH alone that far out, it would of never made it)
