Can someone identify why my plane switched to RTL Mode?
I was flying around line of sight in Manual, when the plane started fighting me and acting very strange. It took me a while to identify what had happened.
The logs don’t show that I selected RTL. The only mode used in this flight were Manual (2200) and FBWA (988)
I never had a failsafe event.
It occurs at 63% on the attached tlog.
APM 2.5.2
Plane 3.02
Twinstar II
Airspeed sensor
Post the .log from APM, the answer is there.
.log attached
Where do you recommend I start looking? I can see the RTL in the .log, but not what caused it.
Thank you

You did not log PM, or Throttle/RC - so I can’t say - but you’ve been climbing for a while before, and climbed during the event, so it’s most likely battery voltage that dipped below.
The speed was increasing during the climb, so your throttle must have been high.

Thank you Andre.
I did not realize that the FS_BATT was set. I never use battery failsafe, and I don’t know how I missed this. Sorry for not figuring this one out myself.
