 In case actual position waypoints are used (and not loiter waypoints) the position controller will use the logic documented in "A New Nonlinear Guidance Logic for Trajectory Tracking" (S. Park, J. Deyst, and J. P. How, Aug 2004). The L1 distance defined in the default parameter only allows an offset correction of about 70% within 5 seconds (and 90% within 10s). This would be a 100 (200) meter distance for a ground speed of 20 m/s. In case actual position waypoints are used (and not loiter waypoints) the position controller will use the logic documented in "A New Nonlinear Guidance Logic for Trajectory Tracking" (S.

-The PX4 firmware only supports one mission at a time. An ongoing mission can not be updated as a full clear is required. Afterwards the mission needs to be uploaded using multiple mavlink messages and roundtrip times (see [[https://mavlink.io/en/protocol/mission.html|Mission Protocol]]).\\Ìý+The PX4 firmware does not support altering an ongoing mission. This requires a full clear of the mission.
