I was wrong, I do have 2-way communication. Looked at pins 2 and 3 with the
scope. (Could have done that earlier)
Then I do not know why I was stuck in holding point block (before I commented
it out).
With or without 2-way-communication, I am still interested in flying without
GCS interaction. Which means that, for the time being, I can only follow a
pre-determined track and then (attempt to) land.
Greetz, Martin
