So i've always thought and somewhat partially experienced this scenario.
I've never really used any of the smart function like home lock etc. But i can see it can be useful in case you lose orientation and simply want to bring back the p3, you flip the swtich, select home lock and hold down on the right stick...
Now i know in a case where P3 is far out, not really visible by eye, and if the DJI app crases (which has happened to me), i hit the RTH button and the P3 came back. So far so good.
But what if, p3 is far out, not visible, for some odd reason it loses gps, switches to atti mode and then the dji go app crashes and wont connect back to the p3? At that point i cannot switch to home lock even, obviously cannot use RTH too.....I would assume the RC would be connected to the aircraft still however because i dont know the orientation of the aircraft, i cannot fly it manually towards home point..
I know this is really a crappy scenario with several failures occuring, but i would still like to know the best way of recovery. Any idea folks?
