RTL

Posted by Marc on March 21, 2012 at 2:23pm

Hello all,

after switching to rtl mode my hex plummeted to the ground ie the throttle shut down, am i right in thinking the  rtl command should bring back the hex at the altitude it was at when i switched to rtl,

i was not using gps waypoints at the time.

 

regards

    Marc,

         Hmm...we seem to be having a number of troubles with the altitude hold in 2.5 even though the code has hardly been changed from 2.4.1.  The issue is that your THROTTLE_TRIM parameter needs to be higher.  The default is 350 which is apparently far too low.  Try bumping it up to 450 or 480.

         Sorry about your crash, i hope it wasn't broken too badly.
