Height and RTH

[colind_uk]

I'm new to the world of drone flying and recently purchased a Mavic Pro. I'm capturing some great video but would like to fly my drone off a cliff and capture some video.
So question is, my RTH is set to 50m, but if the cliff drop is 150m does the drone calculate the 50m from where it took off or (150+50m) or will it drop to 50m above sea level and smack into the side of the cliff?

i needed that info, was gonna ask that same question, but now i have question lets say i am flying at 300 feet and my RTH was set to 150 feet will it stay at 300 feet or descend to 150 feet and RTH ? i'm guessing it would descend to the 150 feet right ? thanks and yes i read the manual.

I'd rather ask questions then crash it,,,, speaking of questions has anyone had any problems with the iPad mini 5 with the new updated IOS 11 ?
