Good advice..

Higher than I thought :-( there are some individual pine trees and the dark green trees to the north-west are also pines, but I don't think it ever got that far. The rest is low scrub

Litchi is great. This was definitely my fault. Lessons learnt: - If the drone is going out of sight have a plan for what to do if it all goes wrong, it is a horrible feeling when it doesn't come back and searching is futile (so far!) - Be very careful in rough terrain and get to know it...

Here is the data, but as you will see it doesn't last long. I should have started it from a ridge where I was going to be able to see it for a while. Now full of gorse prickles, but will go and look tomorrow again between 2 and 3, but this time take a scrub cutter...

Yes, I did that when I planned it...hence my unwarrranted confidence as I started the misson. I also carefully made sure I launched it slightly above Waypoint 1 and that Waypoint 1 was pretty much at the top of the mission. The ground is really rough, so I'm guessing it met ridges in places it...

Thanks Rod, I have now bashed through the gorse to nearly waypoint 3, but no luck....so far.

Here is the mission, I'm guessing it has gone down before waypoint 3. Other suggestions welcome! Mission Hub - Litchi

Thank you, that helps and gives me a few places to start. The mission seems stupidly ambitious now, it wasn't a good place to have it all go wrong.

Hi, I have been loving using Litchi with my Phantom 4 Advanced and my missions around the house have been going well. I just took it out on the farm (what I bought it for) and sent it on a hilly mission that I had carefully planned and double checked with Google Earth. It seems it disconnected...
