[Bug] VTOL will crash in return mode after velocity control via offboard mode

[vegetable-to-kou-foot]

Describe the bug

Hi, we are testing the VTOL drone using PX4 1.14.3+MAVROS 1.19.0+Ubuntu 20.04, but we found that after offboard velocity control in fixed wing mode, the drone crashed when switched to return mode.

Based on the logs, we found that the fixed-wing motor's RPM was constant in return mode, which could lead to the drone not having enough lift and thus crashing. As a comparison, drone wont crash in return mode after position control, which makes us wonder.

We tested this in version 1.13.2, 1.14.0 and 1.14.3, where 1.14 had this issue, but 1.13 was fine. I think some logic error may happened in the 1.14 update, but due to specific sensor requirements, we can only use the version above 1.14. I sincerely want to know how to deal with this issue.

There are our logs and runnable primary code.

The oscillations of the TECS controller do not seem to be related to this problem, since we can still reproduce the problem in HITL after solving the oscillations. Crash in HITL: https://logs.px4.io/plot_app?log=56f79dc6-ca1a-44b5-a0dd-dcb45118fbe8

Position control and successfully return in real flight: https://logs.px4.io/plot_app?log=473e2a04-2c2e-42df-9c6c-3dd0ca746df1

Thank you!

To Reproduce

1. Drone switched on
2. Took off
3. Switched to fixed-wing
4. Switched to offboard mode
5. Sent velocity control command
6. Stop velocity control, drone exited offboard mode and activated failsafe mode(set to return mode)
7. Fixed-wing motor’s RPM was constant
8. Crashed

Expected behavior

Fixed wing motor's RPM should be controlled to vary.
