When within 5 meters of the Home Point, triggering RTH causes the drone to immediately land.
When 5-20 meters from Home Point, the drone flies directly home at current altitude then lands.
When >20 meters from Home Point, the drone climbs STRAIGHT UP to RTH altitude then returns home & lands.
If the drone is higher than the set RTH altitude, it will RTH at the current altitude.
On the Avata 2, on signal loss the drone will retrace the last 50 meters in an attempt to regain signal, then RTH if unsuccessful.
There is no provision to retrace the entire flight.
For your particular scenario you want to set an RTH altitude sufficient to clear any trees in the area. Always launch from the clearing unless you want to take over the controls when the bird gets back in range. One issue to consider is, if flying under the trees, the drone will climb STRAIGHT UP to RTH altitude when RTH is engaged.
