I would like to know how prefetch works ? I click prefetch button hold atl click on maps do download this maps after i don't know how can i reload this map downloaded when i don't have internet connection because prefetch settings permit to cache map data so you don't need Internet access at the field
I would like to known how to load my cache maps on fields where this is not internet connection on APM mega Planner
Do you you know how can i do that ?
Second question about scripting python how can i test it on APM megaplanner This kind of script is used for test (in simulation mode ) only or for it can used it in fligth mode ?
Thanks u for your answers

Michael,
I want to prefetch a very large are up to zoom level 18, and then some time later fetch a smaller subset of that area up to max zoom. Does MP replace what was already there or just fill in the gaps in the higher zoom levels?
Also, if I keep adding areas I don't already have, will the cache just keep growing infinitely or will MP reach a limit at some point? Or would it be better to keep separate cache folders for different locations and swap in the one I need at the time?
Thanks
1. prefetch just downloads the images to a cache. you just need to hold down alt and draw a box on the map, then click prefetch.
2. you can use python scripting in real flight, but you need a very reliable telemetry link. as it overrides your rc transmitter.
use with CAUTION
