If your Aeroo Pro isn't returning to home as expected, try these troubleshooting steps for a simple fix.ย

Why Return to Home Might Not Work
The Return to Home (RTH) feature relies on GPS and proper setup to function correctly. Issues may occur if:ย
- The drone doesn't have a good GPS lock before takeoff.
- The home point wasn't set correctly.
- You're flying in an area with signal interference (metal structures, power lines).
- Theย payload release is closed (this can disable downward sensors).
How to Fix RTH Issues
1. Check GPS Signal Before Takeoff
- Always wait until the app shows a strong GPS lock (10+ satellites) before flying.
- Take off in an open area away from metal, buildings, or trees for the best signal.
2. Set the Home Point Correctly
- Confirm that the home point is saved in the Aeroo Fly app before takeoff.
- You can manually update it in the app if needed (e.g., if flying from a boat).
3. Update Firmware
- Open the Aeroo Fly app and go to: Settings -> General Purpose -> Version -> tap Check for Updates.
- Install any available updates for improved GPS and RTH performance.
4. Avoid Interference
- Turn your phone to Aeroplane Mode (with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth on) to prevent incoming calls or apps from interfering with the connection.
- Avoid flying near power lines, metal roofs, or large antennas.
5. Test Without Payload
- If flying with a payload, try RTH with the payload released.
- If the downward sensors are disabled when the payload release is closed, it may disrupt landing accuracy.
