MP Action tools "set waypoint" no work if it's set before arming #580

Idea is when mission is to long, and when copter battery failsafe trigger RTL, copter land and we reset it changing battery, it would be great to set new start waypoint from mp, without remake flight plan.

Also, it would be great that last commands like TAKEOFF, DO SET ROI, DO SET CAM TRIGG DIST will be automatically invoked to resend automatically the drone at this waypoint in the same configuration than when failsafe was invoked for do the work without remake the flight plan.

This is interesting... Probably a good feature.

I was about to say "I think this issue would be handled better by the ardupilot team". But it looks like they beat me to it... https://github.com/diydrones/ardupilot/issues/1311

I guess it all depends if you ALWAYS use MP as your GCS when flying. A lot of times I will set up the mission in the office, go fly with my phone or tablet as the GCS, or with no GCS at all... In those cases having the functionality in MP wouldn't help.

Yes during Mission, but no before.... Idea is when mission is to long, and when copter battery failsafe trigger RTL, copter land and we reset it changing battery, it would be great to set new start waypoint from mp, without remake flight plan.
