I've searched the web but haven't found a definitive answer to this. Say I want to plan a one way flight, taking off at one location and landing at another. Easy enough, just add a "Land" waypoint at the ending location.
But how do you handle if the landing location is at a significantly higher elevation than the take off location? I just tested this with my little 250 quad, and it doesn't switch to the slower, final descent speed until it gets 10 meters (or whatever) above the takeoff altitude. What that means is if the landing location is more than 10 meters higher than the takeoff elevation, it hits the ground at the faster descent speed. Not a huge issue on my little quad, but I'm not sure I'd want the Solo to land that hard with the gimbal and all.
I've read mentions about an altitude offset somewhere, but can't find any specific information about where it is or how to use it.
There's a nice windy river nearby that I'd love to fly down, but it would definitely require a flight plan as opposed to manual control with all the bends, and the ideal starting and ending locations are at different elevations.
