I’ve only recently obtained my I2 with Cendence and patch antenna - having had various other DJIs.
My question is how should I be positioning the patch antenna to get the best connection to the I2?
I had a really scary experience today - my I2 was about 100ft up but wouldn’t respond to any input from the right stick meaning I couldn’t get it back to me! I hit RTH and it started to land rather come back to the Home Point. The I2 would have landed on my shed roof if the sensors hadn’t prevented it from doing so - at that point I was able to regain control and everything was fine... all firmware is up to date and the home point was set before I took off. Incidentally as the I2 started to land I ran across my garden to try and rescue it - only to fall head over heels down a bank in my panic - thankfully, no major injury - just to my pride as the whole family was watching ?All a bit of a mystery really but with a happy ending.
So, was this down to my patch antenna not being on the ‘best’ position?
