Page 49: Straight Line Rth
DJI Air 3 User Manual 2. Preset: • When the aircraft is further than 50 m from the home point when RTH begins, the aircraft will plan the RTH path, fly to an open area while avoiding obstacles, ascend to the RTH Altitude, and return to home using the best path.
Page 50 DJI Air 3 User Manual • If the aircraft is at a distance of 5 to 50 m from the Home Point when RTH begins, the aircraft adjusts its orientation and flies to the Home Point at the current altitude. If the current altitude is lower than 2 m when RTH begins, the aircraft will ascend to 2 m and files to the Home Point.
Page 51: Low Battery Rth
The action of the aircraft when the remote controller signal is lost can be set to RTH, land, or hover in Setting > Safety > Advanced Safety Settings in DJI Fly. If the Home Point was successfully recorded and the compass is functioning normally, Failsafe RTH automatically activates after the remote controller signal is lost for more than six seconds.
Page 52: Landing Protection
The aircraft will enter or remain in Straight Line RTH if the remote controller signal is restored during RTH. • If the RTH is triggered through DJI Fly and the aircraft is farther than 5 m from the Home Point, DJI Fly will display the two following options: RTH and Landing. Users can select either RTH or directly land the aircraft.
Page 53: Precision Landing
