[QUOTE="Mr Geek, post: 79129, member: 15144"] I really like your idea about coming up with ways to test this, should be a fun Spark project that will benefit everyone with the results. OK on setting RTH altitude to 10-feet lower than underside of bridge/obstacle, but keeping in mind the actual elevation differential numbers to use for the RTH altitude are relative to the ground elevation = 0 feet [B]where the Spark took off[/B] and is not elevation above the ground elsewhere, such as under that bridge. I suspect the drone will reconnect to GPS satellites once it is moved out from under the bridge and ATTI mode will be cancelled, just a hunch. Actually I am thinking you will still have sufficient GPS reception even when under the bridge since I get "Ready to Go" green status even when I am inside my house most times. As you know, the flight to the bridge/obstacle should be over 20m away from the point of take off to make sure the full RTH routine (ascend/fly to RTH/descend/land) will be carried out IF RTH is triggered when GPS is lost.
