Would like to know what is the behaviour of spirit+geolink if I enable geo-fence
while the heli is outside the fence ?

Thank you :)

It will behave in the same way as when reaching the configured limit.

Yes, you can carefully verify it anytime.

thank you Thomas, all went fine :)

enabled the geo-fence with heli under the alt-limit and outside the fence
the heli got some height and started to go to the nearest side of the fence

really great system, i love it ! ;)

What if spooling heli up on the ground, will heli have problems trying to fly within fence

well ... actually I've accidentally done something similar :?
after the flight I was landed (still in idle1) and instead of pulling the hold switch, I pulled the altitude-limit + geo-fence switch
the hely flew away like a demon in direction of fence ... that scared me a lot but nothing wrong happened :mrgreen:

ofc if the rotor speed is too slow, then a crash is very likely
