home location failed
Had this several times on a lost signal, rather worrying even though I've managed to resume ok

So lost singal not auto return to home?
If the drone loses signal you can't send commands to it (such as changing the home point). You should put this command earlier in your mission before you start to lose signal.
Yeah lost signal which will kick in the return to home
Oh OK..I taught there was a problem with the actual rth function
Jim McAndrew, I was flying with it set to dynamic home point
It issues the command every 5 seconds, so once it got to the point that it was losing signal it still had the home point that was set within 5 seconds previously.
Ok, so basically ignore it as it isn't a problem👍
I’m curious why it disconnected at 680’ and 250’ altitude. The Mini 2 with the RC-N1 controller and Ocusync should have no issue at that distance unless there was an unusual amount of interference. Looks like a rural area so kinda strange but anything is possible. If it persist I’d go through and refresh the firmware on drone and controller. Calibrate the IMU and Compass. I’m sure with your experience you are aware of how the directional antenna works. If not properly pointing at the drone it can drop the signal strength and possibly disconnect. It is different then the older controllers which have the omnidirectional antennas. Just some thoughts. Enjoy…
Hi Mike, it is fairly rural, however its also a new housing complex that is being built so there is a bit of interference down that corner for some reason, however, I shall be re-calibrating everything when it comes back from repair after this totally unconnected incident
