Not in my case. My Phantom 3 Advanced reverted to ATTI mode at way-point 8 of 13. It was about 1 mile away but luckily still with in AC range so I could RTH.

I've had a quick search through the forums for the last few months and this subject has come up several times. There have been no definitive suggestions as to the cause of the problem. It does not appear to be due to compass miscalibration or loss of GPS signal, nor to the effect of magnetic or...

I cannot judge whether solar storms could disrupt the GPS signal. However it that was possible, I think that we would be hearing a lot more about it in the press considering how much modern navigation depends on GPS. Anyway it does seem that this problem is fairly common. Does anyone else have...

HI GHostRdr Tat We seem to have had similar problems when flying a mission with Litchi. See my reply to you under my post a couple of posts before yours. "Switching from way-point mission gps to atti mode" Steve H

Yes, it does sound very similar, but what is the reason? I do hope someone can suggest something because it is worrying. Is it a hardware or software bug? Or maybe there is some sort of interference causing loss of GPS signal, although there is no sign of that in the log.

Hi I would love to know the reason for this episode during a Litchi mission when my Phantom 3 Advanced suddenly reverted to atti mode while flying a way-point mission. It then quickly switched between atti and gps-atti several times and from then on ignored the subsequent 7 way-points. I had at...

Hi Mark the Droner. Thanks for your reply. I think I must have been in full GPS mode for the Litchi waypoint mission start, and I do not think I was touching the switch during the mission. I am wondering whether the AC could have been exposed to some sort of interference which disrupted the GPS...

Hi I am not an experienced flier, so I ask for your patience as there are aspects of flight data that I do not fully understand. I'm have flown several successful waypoint missions using Litchi with a Phantom 3 Advanced and have had no problems until the latest one, when I had a heart-stopping...

Hi bkushner. I have the same problem and have tried all the different advice without success. The only solution I have found is to power down my android device, with RC and drone both turned on, and then power it up again. Always works.

Well I suppose it might be a compass error, but I do not think so because I did activate RTH and it flew straight back.

Hi, I am a relative newby so I hope you will be understanding. I am using Litchi. I set up and flew a circular route with eleven waypoints and three POIs. Everything worked fine and I got some good video. I then added a couple more waypoints and made some height adjustments. When I flew the...
