[QUOTE="noooris, post: 14902, member: 2741"] Don't take off without GPS lock. If you had 9-10 satellites it should have locked, the fact that it didn't means something is wrong and is all the more reason not to take off in OPTI (which only really works indoors), and ATTI (which only works if you are a pro, and even then without interference). Wait for a GPS lock, take off and hover at 5m/15ft and wait for home point to update (and check it on the map). Make sure you have no bluetooth or radio or compass warnings. Then fly around safely. This whole process takes about 20 seconds or less. Also download an app that checks solar activity. What happened to you could very well be the result of the sun's solar flares interfering with the satellite signal. [/QUOTE]
