Phoenix RC 5.5 and drone

I use Phoenix Rc5.5 and the Taranisd x9d plus as a transmitter. Now want to practice with this set and a drone. The standard drone that are in Phoenix RC5.5.
I fly in mode 2. And this succeeds in part.
Now it's going to follow. I give gas the drone rises. I push the right stick forward, and the drone flies away from me. This is all right.
Now I let the drone make a turn so that he looks at me. Now I push the right stick forward so the drone has to come to me.
But the drone flies even further away. If I push the right stick away from me, the drone comes to me.
How do I solve this?

Push the stick forward, and push the stick away from you, sounds exactly the same to me.
It looks like the sim is working as it should.

By pushing Stick forward, the drone should move forward in the direction of its nose. If its nose is pointing in your direction, it will fly towards you..

I will try to explain the following drawing.
I am standing in the blue dot.
The black is the direction in which the front of the drone is located.
The green is the stick movement
The red is the movement where the drone flies.
The blue arrows in the middle, there I let the drone run.

In situation 2 the front of the drone is facing me.
I move the stick forward.
And yet he flies further away from me.
While he has to come to me.

I don't have Phoenix but sounds like it is using headless mode. Don't know if it will help, but a google search turned up this https://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthr ... dless-mode
