Yes, home point/starting point is near the base or at least below the highest point of the hill.
I did run into a low battery scenario during an out of range waypoint mission where my Mavic 3 Pro climbed up to 1300ft to then rth to home point safely (after watching the recorded video from the flight). But my RTH setting is set at optimal with 249ft as the RTH height.
At AIR 3 you will not see this.
Optimal or Standard, will not climb more that allowed, as is considering to enter in an eventuality of Specific scenario instead of Open scenario.
So...if the hill needs to go upper than 120meters height, will not climb it, but will block as the sensors will detect an obstacle.
If you have clearance for 500meters height, will go.
Usually, should climb as the hill is climbing and you are in Open scenario as you have under 120m AGL all time, but the drone does not know this as is not having a map with heights, is using only the AGL from point of origin (Home point).
This is why I asked if you are over 120m AGL vs Home Point when need to get over the hill...as in that part if is restricted, will block, even with Optimal or Standard.
Is you are under the limit, yes, it will go and climb the hill and make RTH.
Of course, I would not recommend you to try this, I consider it a high risk scenario as you are loosing the line of sight and you are out of OPEN flight, entering in Specific one....also you risk that the drone to go into a tree, if there is thin branches, causing sensors to fail to see it and you get a crush.
One more: as the potential crush will not be recorded in your RC and GPS, as your RC will be disconnected, you will not find the drone with Find My Drone.
For this situations I have made scenarios with an Autel Evo2Pro that have independent CPU for guidance and mapping, but always I have tried to stay in highest point for take-off. Have not got any issues, but cannot compare Air 3 360 vision with 3D vision from Autel obstacle sensors that can see also branches and some wires if they are not very thin, when mapping independently...
Also if you have a low/poor contrast scene, no OA sensors will work, only laser ones.
Cheers. |
