Mission Planner Question

Posted by Tom Petruzzelli on December 15, 2011 at 6:28am

Newbie Question

Can I plan a waypoint mission to fly an arducopter without the use of telemetry.

Can I program the mission planner and load waypoints from a map, then load the software and fly the arducopter or do I have to fly from the mission planner via telemetry -I am not clear on this?

Also if possible to fly without telemetry, how would you control speed?

thanks - Tom

    You can fly any mission stored in the EEProm of the APM. The mission planner writes to the EEPROM and the CH7 switch can be used to record WP in flight.

    So no, the mission planner isn't needed during flight.
