Return to Launch and Landing

Return to launch or RTL is used to make the drone fly safely back to the home/launch location and land it.

When the drone is armed, the Upload Mission button becomes the RTL button. To make the drone perform an RTL, click the button. A slider will be shown to confirm the action.

RTL Slider

Once the user swipes the slider to the right the drone will execute the RTL action.

The drone will first climb till it reaches the RTL Altitude set by the user during Mission Planning.
