The RTH plan in dierent environments, RTH trigger methods, and RTH settings is as follows:
Lighting and Environment Conditions
RTH Trigerring Conditions
Suitable for Vision System Unsuitable for Vision System
The aircraft can bypass 
obstacles and avoid GEO 
Zones and custom GEO 
Zones (user-dened no-y 
zones).
The aircraft cannot bypass 
obstacles but can avoid GEO 
Zones and custom GEO Zones 
(user-dened no-y zones).
The user actively triggers 
RTH
The aircraft will perform RTH 
based on RTH setting:
• Optimal RTH path
• Preset RTH path
Preset RTH path
Aircraft low battery
Loss of control signal
Original route RTH procedure,
preset RTH path will be 
performed when the signal is 
restored
• During Advanced RTH, the aircraft will adjust the flight speed automatically to suit 
environmental factors such as wind speed and obstacles.
• The aircraft cannot avoid small or fine objects such as power lines or towers. It is 
recommended to disable Optimal Route Planning. Make sure to set the RTH Altitude 
higher than all obstacles.
• It is recommended to mark the waypoint with obstacle above as no-return point to 
ensure the ight safety during RTH.
• DO  NOT update  the Home  Point after  gaining control  using remote  controller B. 
Otherwise, the aircraft may not return to the dock if the Home Point is updated.
• If the max altitude is set below the current altitude during RTH, the aircraft will 
descend to the max altitude rst and then continue to return to home.
• The RTH Altitude cannot be changed during RTH.
• If there is a large dierence in the current altitude and the RTH altitude, the amount 
of battery power used cannot be calculated accurately due to wind speeds at dierent 
altitudes. Pay  extra  attention  to  the  battery  power and  warning  prompts  in  DJI 
FlightHub 2.
• During Advanced RTH, if the lighting condition and environment becomes unsuitable 
for the vision system and if Obstacle Data is disabled, the aircraft will perform Preset 
RTH path. In this case, the aircraft cannot bypass obstacles. Make sure to set an 
appropriate RTH altitude before performing RTH.
• If the aircraft reaches the altitude limit of the aircraft current location or of the Home 
Point while it is ascending during Preset RTH path, the aircraft stops ascending and 
returns to the Home Point at the current altitude. Pay attention to ight safety during 
RTH.
