Hexacopter Auto flight mode

Hi

I would like to know from seniors about settings for auto mode.

I tried Auto mode and created waypoints for a auto flight between

launch point and 2 waypoints 20 meters away just to test and the last way point

was landing.

 

The moment I switched the switch to Auto, hexa copter zoomed like a rocket

and went up to aprox 40-50 Meters up and then it travelled to way points and when it was supposed to land it kept hovering and suddenly to my horror it was falling down fast. I did not panicked and switched to stabilized mode and recovered it when it was approx. 15 meters from the ground and avoided a crash landing.

 

What I noticed that though it went to waypoints but did not follow the altitude (8Meters) given in the waypoints. I realized later that my Sonar was blocked with my 3" wide foam sheets used as landing gear. (My original landing gear were broken in another fall recently and I have imported new set but did not used them yet)

I would like to know how to set and where to set the altitude for copter in Auto mode?

I could not find any settings or did not understand them.

What I could see in advanced param is something like this.

LIM High Atl  25

LIM low Alt    10

LIM Alt           0

I may have not written above params exactly as I am away from copter but they are similar.

Please suggest what to do? (I am using a ready to fly Hexa bought from udrones.

regards
