"Here is the log of my most recent attempt. I had stab and loiter as my two modes, and RTL as the failsafe.
RTL is activated two times, both with a very heavy throttle as a result.

The compass is moved as far away as I…"

"Thank you for the answer.
Yes, I switched over to loiter that many times. I activated loiter at different intervals during a 10 minute fly when I felt I had stabilized my copter enough in stable mode. The activation of loiter-mode seems to work…"
