waypoints:home location

Posted by Hans Baele on August 30, 2013 at 12:11pm

Hi,

Normally if you create a mission with waypoints and a home location with takeoff you have your home location where you armed last your quad. So you place your quad at the
exact lacation to takeoff.
But if you have no internet at the location where you want to test the wp's and you want to prepare the mission at home you have to guess a little bit the place to takeoff (about +-25 m).This means when you part to fly(takeoff) to the first wp you do no part exactly from the home location configured in the mission planner.
Does this give a problem?

Thanks

    You know you don't need the internet in the field, you can preload the map of where you are flying before you go to the field.  Under flight plan, right click on the map and select map tool and prefetch.
