Surprising twist

[OrionsQwest]

I am a new flip user. I have the Mavic 2 also. I just found out about something I never experienced before. When flying my flip I ran into higher than normal winds I was only up about 160 feet but what I didn't know is RTH doesn't work when wind is high. I will have to be more careful in that regard in case in I lose line of site and get turned around.

I don’t have a Flip yet but I assume RTH would behave just like any other DJI drone. If the Flip is having trouble fighting the wind during RTH, then cancel it and lower the drone and try flying back manually at the lower altitude as the wind speed is often higher at high altitudes.

Yeah that's what I did. Once I lowered a little wind was better and RTH worked
