Mission Planner waypoints
Is it possible to make your mission from a computer at home and load it before you go fly. I would like to do this but it wants the home position. If I plan the whole thing out what will happen after it locks on a GPS signal in the field?

This is what I have so far. I want to see if this will takeoff and then comeback and land then takeoff again. Does this look right?

Yes, that's fine.
In the APM, "Home" position is normally set to the position you powered-on the airplane ( after GPS lock, of course). In your case, the correct thing will happen so long as the pre-configured "Home" is actually your planned take-off point.
Should you take-off from a different location, then your mission will still be take-off point -> 1 -> 2 -> take-off point.... but its won't necessarily be the exact triangle shape you see below.
