Restarting a Mission problems!

  I can restart the mission while the plane is inflight, it will go to waypiont 2 and fly the mission. No problems with this situation.  FYI   I have waypoint 1 set to autotake off.   So it should skip waypiont 1 while in the air I am assuming.

 

The issue is after the plane does autolanding.  I  flip the mode swith to manual, and taxi the airplane back to me.  I then go to the computer and hit the restart mission in the amp planner.  The first waypoint in the mission is set to autotake off.  When I flip the mode switch to auto.  The plane just sits there.  It will not do waypiont 1....i.e.  It will not spool up the motor. 

 

I can I reset the amp by unplugging the flight battery.  After the reset the amp will see waypiont one, it will spool up the motor and go through the auto takeoff procedure.  

 

So I am wondering what is the procedure for getting the amp planner to restart the mission including the autotake off command.   

I have been able to restart the mission successfully in previous versions of the amp planner.  FYI.  I believe it two version ago.   1.49

 

thanks for any help

  • Hi Chad,

     

    I have a similar problem. I am not using Auto land or takeoff, but if I fly a mission to the last waypoint, then land the plane manually, then hit "restart mission", it will not restart. I've found that restart mission only seems to work if I am in Auto mode, so if you are in manual mode, it will do nothing. This is a little annoying as I would like to fly a mission, land, click restart mission then relaunch the plan manually, then when in the air I can just flick the switch to auto and have it redo the mission.

    Currently,I flick it to auto, it just circles around the last waypoint then I have to go to the mission planner and click restart mission, which means taking my eyes off the plan while fiddling with my computers touch pad (I hate those things!). I don't want to put it in auto on the ground just to restart the mission as that usually spins up the prop and that is dangerous.
