Hi to all,
new here. I have a Bebop 2 since last July and I enjoyed it a lot.
I have made tens of succesfully flights. I have installed also Flight Plan and used it a lot of times without any problem.
During my last Flight Plan flight my bebop 2 has, however, has not come back.
I, in programming my Flight Plan flights, use Googlemap Pro, that allows to see the elevation along the selected flight path. And I always add at least 25 m above the maximum current below ground elevation. I also predicted for this last flight a battery consumption of 55% and the weather was fine with no wind. I have soon searched as possible crash site the site with the maximum elevation along the flight path several times without success (it is in a uninhabited & wild area, hence one can have found and took away). So now I wonder if the reason of the loss can be another.
This last my Flight Plan flight was the first in which the takeoff and landing places were far apart. After take off I waited that the bebop 2 went off range (disconnected), before moving by car to the expected landing site without switching off the Controller. Bebop 2, however, never arrived and even reconnected.
I know that the elevation of the waypoints in Flight Plan is respect to the takeoff site, and I took that into account as in all my many previous flights using Flight Plan.
There was however also another "first time" in this last flight. Since the elevation of a very interesting location in mid flight was well below the takeoff elevation (of more than 150 m), I put the elevation in those waypoints as 0 m, since also with such 0 m elevation, bebop 2 should have been at least 80 m higher respect to the ground. In past the minimum altitude I used in a waypoint was 1m, without problems (on the same location). Now I ask: can the 0 m elevation in a waypoint passed by Fligth Plan to the bebop 2 mean for the bebop 2 the command to land?
I know of course the location of the first waypoint with 0 m elevation, but it is in a place very hard reach...
Very grateful if someone could help me to understand:
V.
