we were testing this inhouse. the drone stops, but it does not adjust its position to try and move around. I understand that there is an obstacle avoidance package in PX4: Obstacle Avoidance | PX4 User Guide (v1.13)

However, this is only for Mission and offboard mode. There is nothing for position mode. Let’s say, if you wanted to fly straight down a hallway without crashing into the walls

Hmm! Now I got your point. This sounds new to me!
