For safe takeoff AQ must not entry to PH while altitude was not increased >30-40cm after motors was started.

Posted: Sun Jun 14, 2015 12:55 pmThis is why the multicopters that have a ground sensor and GPS often have an auto takeoff switch.
I have my throttle spring to the center position. In manual control I set the throttle just low enough so the quad does not leave the ground. When I switch to APH and give a little throttle the quad is in the air within a second.
To have the manual throttle low enough not to let the quad leave the ground I do a mix that lowers throttle setting when in manual control. Without the mix the throttle is set for hover.

Posted: Sun Jun 14, 2015 1:48 pmLike with real aircraft, taking off is the easy part... it's landing that can be more tricky (and not optional ). I had a MR several years ago that did auto-land on a switch (used sonar to sense ground) and it was pretty cool to watch it do its thing. I kinda miss that. AQ can auto-land or takeoff in mission mode, but it's not really the same.
