Inav: Land after RTH - delayed landing.

Created on 4 Oct 2020  Â·  4Comments  Â·  Source: iNavFlight/inav

Current Behavior

As expected. On the craft returning home it immediately begins to land.

Desired Behavior

On the craft returning to home, if it could loiter a set amount of time before starting to land.

Suggested Solution

Add in a variable delay where the craft will loiter before starting to land.

Who does this impact? Who is this for?

This is mainly for fixed wing that dont crash well. I fly lion long range and I cant have my failsafe set to RTH and loiter as it could be up there loitering for a long time. However if im at short range and I've an issue with the link, the wing will start to land immediately on return to home. Not giving me any time to try sort the link out.

This is an excellent idea for pilots who fly from a site unsuitable for auto landing. It will give time to try and fix problems, knowing that the model is safe above them.
