When using Virtual stick mode in SDK 4 or SDK 5 is it possible to send a negative value for the `setVerticalThrottle` when set to position mode? E.g. -10 meters.

I got a illegal param warning when attempting to send an altitude of -0.5 meters.

A WaypointMission in SDK 4 accepts values in the range [-200, 500] meters for the altitude for a Waypoint.

For example this might be useful if a Pilot took off from a height such as the roof of a building or top of a hill and wanted to observe an automated virtual stick flight over lower ground.

  Only by using speed mode can the aircraft be flown to a negative altitude. When using position mode control, the altitude must be positive."
