I have a spirit pro with geolink all set up and calibrated. position hold works but dose kind of bounce around I'm a fairly new pilot so trying new things scare me a little bit but when I turn on the geofence it shoots straight up in the air as if rescue was activated I have it set at 2m hard deck and I beleave 20m high and I have my flying zone set I engaged it when I was at a hover above the 2m..... Can anyone tell me what settings to look at and change.... Both units are up to date I fly a goblin 570 with opentx

If this has been discussed please point me to the link

Thank you in advance
Chad

Hello Chad,

when Geo-fence is engaged it should not change Collective Pitch at all. It should only control the cyclic commands.
This mean that you are also engaging other feature, probably Altitude Limit.

Please disable Altitude Limit first, then check the Geo-fence again. This will make it easier to observe correct operation.
The model should just return to the center upon reaching configured area.

Make sure you are always trying all the features in a very safe altitude and with good visibility.
