QuadPlane: Unable to Resume AUTO Mission After VTOL Landing (Auto Re-arm & Takeoff Issue)

General
1

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working with a QuadPlane in ArduPilot and facing an issue with mission continuation after a VTOL landing.

My goal:
I want the aircraft to perform a VTOL landing during an AUTO mission, then automatically re-arm and continue the remaining mission (including takeoff).

Problem:
After the VTOL landing is completed, the aircraft disarms as expected, but it does not proceed with the rest of the mission. It does not perform an automatic re-arm or AUTO takeoff.

What I’ve tried so far:

  • Used DELAY mission item

  • Used DO_AUX_FUNCTION to attempt re-arming / triggering actions

  • Experimented with mission flow adjustments

However, none of these approaches are working — the vehicle remains disarmed and the mission does not resume.

What I’m looking for:

  • Is there a supported way to automatically re-arm after a VTOL landing in a mission?

  • Can this behavior be achieved using mission commands alone, or is a Lua script required?

  • If Lua is needed, what would be the recommended approach for safely re-arming and resuming the mission?

Any guidance, examples, or parameter suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Can you share your mission file and parameters?
