1.Loiter altitude & 2.Power cycle needed to re-arm

Hi all,

I have two questions I am hoping the more experienced might help this noob with

History.

I built a quadcopter SK450 frame, APM.2.5 with v 3.0.1 & CN-06 GPS that with a mixture of some bad tx programming that switched on RTL when it shouldn't have and combined with very bad toilet bowl effect, smacked into a tree :(

Current

Rebuild with much improved wiring from battery to ESC's

Cut track to disable APM compass and added separate, higher mounted compass/GPS module - compassmot now 17%

Does RTL to within inches of home, stabilize very good.. but with loiter it sits perfectly on spot except for altitude even with a breeze.

When I switch to loiter the quad shoots up and appears to sit at the RTL programmed height

Also I am noticing on a number of occasions during test flights, the need after landing to disconnect/reconnect the lipo before I can rearm again

Any and all help and advice will be greatly appreciated

Cheers

Sean
