Hello,
i have an upcoming lidar mission that is the side of a mountain. i will be using DJI terrain model. the limitations are that i can only take off from the access road. there is 2200ft of elevation change from my takeoff point on the road to the top of the ridge where my mission ends. i wanted to fly at 300-400ft. My concern is that because i can only set the max alt to 1640 and the RTH to 1640 ft that the mission will stop before completion. can anyone verify this? is there a workaround? i can not go half way up the hill and launch from there. i need to be able to get 2200ft elevation gain but i would still be maintaining 300-400ft AGL. also, what will the RTH feature do? if it loses signal at the highest point will it drop down to 1640ft and crash?
Thanks
