Hi,

i have some questions about flying missions with a Hexacopter using APM 2.6 with arducopter Firmware 3.2.1: 

1. What happens after a mission finishes? I used an old android tablet and droidplanner 2 to create a "mission" just some waypoints... So what happens after the last waypoint? Does the copter go to stabilize? to Loiter? What does it do? 

2. What is a good speed to fly for mapping purposes with a hexacopter? (slower - better resolution? - faster more coverable aeria?)

3. How does APM go from one Waypoint to another if they have different height settings? For example Waypoint 1 is 30m high, waypoint 2 100. Is the copter then flying diagonal from waypoint 1 to 2 or does it first fly to the x/y value and then climbs up?

Any Idea would be nice!

Thanks a lot!
