Is this possible?

Hello,

I need some advice.

I have a TwinStarII for FPV, but I need to achieve 2 goals:

1) I need a RTH feature in case during FPV I lose video feed or RC range

2) I need a safe way to take off manually and switch into an autonomous flight mode with flight plan, to get well outside Rc and video range and wait for the plane to finish its flight, and regain manual control to land.

Is this safely achievable with Ardupilot Mega...?

I'm sensing an issue with getting out of RC range and failsafe trigger...

The failsafe is an option and can be disabled. The law of your land is obviously not and cannot be disabled :)

Regards
