    How does "return to home" work

    Great question. I was in a similar situation. Lost connection, RTH, and then Bebop hovered 6 ft off the ground. Reach out and grab it? Wait for the battery to die and catch it? Fortunately, I was able to reconnect and so never had to find out. But it is good to learn that reaching and...

    Something you should know about the props

    I have two after-market props on my Bebop. They feel slightly more flimsy than the originals. Interesting to know that the difference is the plastic. So far, I have not noticed any difference in performance.

    Detroit Here!

    Hi. Pretty much a newbie to droning. Had a Holy Stone HS720, but crashed it on Day 3. I think it was a software bug, rather then human error that did it, but I'm pretty sure there was a bug in any case. (Flew off when using yaw control.) Got a used BB2 because I wanted to have FPV with...
