My two favorite things are my new drone and my Lectric e-bike. I see yours behind you. Awesome! Thanks for the tips. Following for me. I’m brand new to this, and am slowly learning.

[AdoD-yf]

Just got my first drone and your videos have taken away a lot of the fear from taking off on my first flight. Thank you

[JoshuaYoung]

Thank you for a complete and short video. many people do way too long videos. "How to return your drone. Well first let's talk about the history of flight." Two hours later we get our answer. Would have loved this to be chaptered but it was short enough.

[mtezman]

Thank you. Clear and straight to the point advice and instructions.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, can these be flown over water at night, as well as photography i beach fish at night, was looking at some bait releasd ideas, thanks

[bitanalyst]

Hello, every time I press RTH on my controller it cancels, it’s also not available on my screen.

Is there something I’m doing wrong? Thank you

[myj]

Suppose we are alway from drone or drone are at low level like 20ft in garden or under tress.sudenly we need RTH but if i had set RTH HEIGHT AT 200 feets..
My question is that when my dji air 3 prepear him for goto 200 feets (for set RTH position but drone are at under tress so what will b happened..
They did or not colapsed with tress..?
Pls clear my confusion

[Thaggard_is]

My RC doesn't have RTH on the screen it just shows land. I can manual press the RTH button and it works. I'm also 20m + away from home point. Is there something I need to turn on?

Iam by no means a guru but is this Folsom lake in California?

[SailingAsmara]

Responding to an earlier question about RTH to takeoff position or controller position. Now I am on a moving boot, can it be set to RTH to controller?

[whatsnottohike]

Question. If I take off, that's my RTH position, but then let's say during the flight, I activate, active tracking and the drone then follows me, say up or across a mountain peak. So no I've moved some distance from where I take off, so how do I now get the drone back to my new position because if I choose RTH I'm no longer there. How do I get it to land in my new position? Can I change the RTH position during the flight? Thanks!

[Kneedeepinstock]

If you take off and immediately hit return to home while you are say 5ft off the ground, will the drone automatically fly up to the Return to Home Height of 100ft etc.? Or will it simply go back down from 5ft to the ground? Just incase there are lots of trees above me when i am flying at moderate height 5ft or so and decide to return to home.

[JorgeBenavidesjobenaviphoto]

Mine does not have the rth option on screen why is this ?? When I hold press the physical button rth just shows that it cancelled 😢

[leonardodesousa]

Will the drone return to where it take off or where the remote control is…?let say that you moved after take off..

[jerrywayneray]

how can I change my RTH? Example, i take off form point A, home point is set. I am walking with drone flying, and stop. Now I want this NEW spot where I am walking to be my new RTH. Otherwise, if I press RTH, the drone will fly back to my original point of take off, which I do not want. Do I have the physically land the drone in the new spot, turn on and off drone here- to get a new RTH point?

[rdking]

how come no one talks about how to set home?
do i have to program gps coordinates?
