Forward Always North? Aerial photography related question

Hi there,

I'm wondering if there is a setting for my flight paths such that my quad will maintain takeoff orientation throughout the whole flight. I'm trying to use DO_SET_CAMERA_DIST for aerial surveying, but about half of the time, I capture pics mid-yaw, resulting in significant blurring of the image. Also I'm finding Microsoft ICE isn't too great at figuring out rotation of my images.

Since I'm taking square photos, and the quad shouldn't care which way is forward, is there a setting somewhere that I can have it fly in auto mode and keep forward as north instead of forward or some such thing? If not, why couldn't there be?

I feel like I saw it one time deep in a thread but obviously can't find it. I went through the full parameter list and no luck yet.

Thanks!

  • WP_yaw_behavior is what you're looking for I think.
