Or better yet, don't take off directly beneath a tree, regardless of the control mode chosen. You might steer clear of the tree on takeoff, but if the flight ends with RTH, you'll have a serious problem.

RTH avoids trees and uses optimal path planning on the air3s, and i take off there all the time. I just left it in sport mode lol.
 
I rarely fly my drones in sport mode so it only makes sense for me not to take off in sport mode. I always fly my FPV drones in sport mode so most of the time I either switch to sport mode on the ground or right after take off. Different roles.
