Plane: I programmed 1 loiter turn and got 4.

To set up my approach I programmed one loiter turn at WP27, but when the plane arrived it did 4 turns before continuing on to a nearly perfect autolanding.

Also, look at WP27 and notice that the number 25 showed up in a blank column after reading back the flight plan from the APM. What does this mean? Is it related to the unexpected loiter behavior?

    Could it be that the plane was still way above the 175ft required by the WAYPOINT_TURNS and thus kept descending in a circle until 175ft?
