APM 2.5 ArduCopter Quadcopter Return to Launch (RTL) Field Test in Windy Conditions - Austin, TX

A special thanks to my buddy Cory Kirk who, on a minute's notice, came to the field to film for me:
This was my first ArduCopter APM 2.5 RTL test and the results were astounding. I was hesitant to flip the switch because of the amount of wind and how hard it was to control the quadcopter even in stabilize mode. I had my Turnigy 9X switch position 1 configured for RTL flight mode and if you need help setting it up then go here:
Once I flipped into RTL mode the APM board was ecstatic to take control of the rotors. It quickly ascended to 50 ft and then started heading toward the launch location. The launch location is determined by having a GPS fix and where the quad was last armed.
The quad descended and loitered until I took control again. You'll see it's within a couple feet of the launch location. Very impressive.
Just FYI my parameter settings were the defaults of:
ALT_HOLD_RTL: 1500 (cm)
AUTO_LAND: 5000 (milliseconds)
APPROACH_ALT: 200 (cm)
These worked beautifully out of the box. I hope this video was useful and let me know if you have any problems setting this up.
Good luck!
