Jayson Hanes said:however, you can successfully program the autopilot with waypoints that have a path behind buildings.. losing either control or wifi signal will NOT trigger a RTH. Just pay close attention to your mission and altitudes at each point!

I'm still trying to figure out why... :?
Geoelectro said:I intend to fly around a local water tower, the tallest water tower west of the Mississippi River. So here's what I'm thinking. I will be south of the tower. So I plan to take off on the East side, slightly north. This way, if I lose signal as it passes around the north side, it will go east heading back to home.

Jayson Hanes said:he's talking about resetting the home point, which will effectively reset the altitude at the same time -- so it will indeed climb +20 meters from that new point on a RTH.

I think the telemetry data stays unchanged, which may be causing the confusion of resetting the altitude for RTH.
