Abstract:
Autonomous flight is performed in an open loop mode over a first range of altitudes, wherein a plurality altitude-related data from a plurality of altitude-related sensors is ignored while performing the autonomous flight in the open loop mode. The autonomous flight is performed in a closed loop mode over a second range of altitudes, wherein: the plurality of altitude-related data from the plurality of altitude-related sensors is used while performing the autonomous flight in the closed loop mode, and the first range of altitudes is a non-overlapping, lower range of altitudes compared to the second range of altitudes.

Claim (Index 4):
The system recited in  claim 1 , wherein:\n the autonomous flight includes autonomous landing; and the memory is further configured to provide the processor with instructions which when executed cause the processor to:\n obtain an altitude from the measured altitude; \n compare the obtained altitude against an altitude threshold; and \n in response to the obtained altitude no longer exceeding the altitude threshold, switch from performing the autonomous landing in the closed loop mode, wherein the plurality of altitude-related data is used, to performing the autonomous landing in the open loop mode, wherein the plurality of altitude-related data is ignored, wherein the altitude threshold is selected based at least in part on a landing surface, including by:\n determining whether an aircraft is above land or water; and \n in response to the determination whether the aircraft is above land or water, selecting a land altitude threshold or a water altitude threshold accordingly.
