I and one other P4P owner (so far) have noted an odd and potentially dangerous RTH behavior: Upon either a manually commanded or failsafe RTH the unit will climb continuously while enroute back to home point until it is either stopped by manually exiting RTH, or finally reaches its home point (at which point it will begin a vertical decent.) As far as we can tell the unit will ascend continuously until stopped, or at least we haven't experienced a limit. The pre-set RTH altitude setting seems to have no effect on this behavior.
This is obviously a serious bug since it could potentially cause loss of the aircraft and/or present a danger to other air traffic. The problem may not be noticed over short horizontal distances but over longer routes it is dramatic.
Can you all please see if you can duplicate this behavior? If it is happening on two units it is probably happening on more.
