RTL return speed

Posted by Quentin Mayberry on July 12, 2014 at 3:22pm

Can anyone tell me which parameter to change to make my multicopter RTL quicker?

I thought it may have been wp nav speed, but that by default is set at 500 cm/s which is pretty rapid, but it only comes back in RTL at around 3.3 m/s.

    Hi. As I can see in 3.3 firmware RTL speed not changed by wpnav_loiter_speed?

    I set wpnav_loiter_speed by 1000, but RTL speed still <5 m/s

    The parameter to adjust the rtl speed is wpnav_loiter_speed. Trying changing it directly under the full parameters list.

    I personally set it at about 1200cm/s, which allows the bird to return at about close to 40km/hr.

    Version 3.1.5 in use on an APM 2.6
