3.11 Signal Management
Flying behind solid objects, like buildings and trees, blocks communication signals between Solo and the controller.
Always maintain visual contact with Solo to ensure that the signal is unobstructed. Cell phone towers and nearby
WiFi signals can cause interference with the communication system and decrease its range. Avoid flying in
populated areas to avoid sources of interference.
If the communication signal with the controller is lost during flight, Solo will automatically return home if it has GPS
lock. If the signal is recovered, the user will be prompted to re-take control and cancel the return-home command.
Figure 3.11.1: Controller Signal Lost Warnings With GPS
If there is no GPS lock and the controller signal is lost, Solo will initiate an emergency landing and display the screen
shown in Figure 3.11.2.
