I was testing my new Skydio 2 using its Remote Control. I flew it at about 70' altitude, to a distance about 500' away. When I lowered its altitude for a closer-up shot, it disconnected.
I had never set any "return to home" altitude, so I was a little concerned.
Does the Skydio 2 even have such a setting? Or is it totally dependent on the obstacle-avoidance system to keep from hitting anything on the way back home? If so, what are its limits? How far "around" an object will it go? 1 foot? 100 feet? When will it decide to go OVER an object?
In the video below, I tested the obstacle-avoidance system (a little). My Skydio is only 3 days old, and I really don't want to crash it, but I do want to know what its capabilities are.
