I have a nitro 3 channel fixed wing I've been setting it up and had a successful first two flights. Tried it out... tried FBWA for the first time WOW Awesome!! However when I tried RTL in two separate flights it seemed to do the altitude correctly, the speed correctly, but the direction I don't get. It seemed to fly off away from me aka where I took off from. I did wait until I have several sats before taking off. Two things... I have arming just ON... no rudder arming. And.. I did notice after I landed I accidentally had the waypoint radius at 270 meters instead of 27. Could either of these two things be the cause? Without ruddwe arming when or how does 3.7 know where the RTL location is being as it's not where it's armed right? because with rudder arming off it doesn't / shouldn't just use the location that basically zero gps's have the second it's tuned on right? So how / when does it decide where the RTL location is? ..... That... or perhaps it just decided when I hit RTL it was already inside that 270 meters and was simply taking the shortest distance to the 'circle'??? At any rate I have no way to know and cannot fly again for several weeks so was hoping I could get somebody much more experienced in reading logs to take a look and see if somebody can figure it out. Here is the log... could not get it to upload here direct for some reason so here it is on google drive https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3MgBBZGOf88eUJQdWZxeXNORzQ Thanks!
