Is GUIDED mode broken in Plane 3.8.3?

Hello, I just flashed Plane 3.8.3 and got strange results in two different planes. Basically, GUIDED does not seem to be doing anything. I tried it on a plane with a 3DR Pixhawk and one with a ProfiCNC Pixhawk 2 (Cube). Both perform fine except when switching to GUIDED by right clicking on the map in Mission Planner.

I attach a log file (bin) here from the Pixhawk 2 flight.

Basically, after launching in AUTO and changing to RTL, I tried to give it GUIDED waypoints repeatedly with no success. Looking at Mission Planner, I could see that the orange line, which normally points to the current waypoint, was not pointing at the GUIDED waypoint but was wandering aimlessly. This was not the case when changing to AUTO, the line was immediately snapping to attention and pointing to the current waypoint. It seemed as if the waypoint was being set but not actually activated.

Also, although I could not interactively send the plane around, I could issue altitude change commands through MP.

Does anyone have any ideas or experienced similar behaviour?

I’ve reproduced the problem and opened an issue for MissionPlanner here:


hopefully Michael will fix it soon

Great, that was super fast. I 'm upgrading my MP. Thanks a lot guys.
