RTH altitude is it meters only?

[hasselbrook]

In beginner mode-

I changed setting to imperial/feet- alt, and distance show 98 feet-

RTH still shows what I believe to be meeers! Can this be changed to feet?

I find no way to make that change-

It cannot be changed to feet. Make sure you set it in meters (else it'll ascend much higher than you had planned).

A good way to estimate is that 3+ feet = 1 meter. That's the method I use when flying in various locations

 

[DodgeP]

30Meters = 100FT
60Meters = 200FT
91Meters = 300FT
122Meters = 400FT

You should have a preflight checklist, add these conversions to your checklist. As part of your preflight checklist you should be checking for obstacles, set your RTH according to your assumption of the height of any possible obstacles.

TIP: You can overwhelm yourself with things you can't control or learn to operate around them.
