Choose RTH or Hover when lose connection

[399AGL]

Is there a way to choose what happens when / if the Evo 1 disconnects from the RC? If I'm flying under a rock structure, I'd like to have it hover until I'm in range if it loses connection.

When the Evo does a Go-Home, when it comes close enough, just press the PAUSE button (II) to regain control of the device. At this time, you can put it manually (practical if the ground is uneven or reception in the hand. Otherwise, it will land automatically (not always recommended unless the ground is without obstacles)

Ok thanks. So I guess there's no setting where I can take more control of the what I want it to do.

So what happens if it is under a tree canopy?

No, the only parameter where you can choose the landing or hover is when programming the missions.

If it still has GPS lock, it will gain set altitude, before returning home. If it lost signal, it will land right where it is.

How can it gain altitude when under a tree canopy. Sounds like a crash in the making?

It is. If you set your RTH to 150' and you are at 50', it will go up 100' before starting to RTH

It does seem that a Hover option would be useful.

Agreed
