Solved Problem
With
RTL_TYPE=0
andRTL_APPR_FORCE=1
, the logic in RTL::findRtlDestination() does not check if the mission is valid, only if the mission has a valid land item. If the mission is not valid, it will result in anyway switching into the Mission RTL, only to then find that the mission is invalid and loiter at place instead of returning.Solution
Instead of adding an additional check for the mission validity there, the proposal here is to not return
hasMissionLandStart()
as true.Changelog Entry
For release notes:
Alternatives
Add a check for mission validity in
PX4-Autopilot/src/modules/navigator/rtl.cpp
