On The Fly - Path RTH

(Mavic Mini) I plan on walking through a ravine and using the "Path" mode for the first time to set waypoints using 3 batteries. Will I be able to swap the batteries and continue adding points to the same path? What will happen when a battery hits 20% while I'm setting the path? Will the drone fly off to my starting point, hover, or land..?

A good question about what happens during OTF if you change batteries. My assumption would be that it will stop and you would need to start another on the fly mission, but that is just a guess. Maybe someone has done this and can opine.

The good news is that, even if it restarts, you can reuse these on the fly missions and combine them to create a single mission later. Here is information on reusing on the fly missions: https://vimeo.com/586096473

Low battery - both percentage and action - are based on whatever you set up in DJI go. You can configure that to do whatever you want. By default, it will climb to the RTH altitude, return to home and land.
