I believe this feature has since been removed.

Plan mission including Digital Surface Model as 3D object
How could I include a Digital Surface Model (DSM) (with native Geotiff format) as a 3D Object to avoid hitting objects when creating missions at low AGL?
Read more…Area scan request - allow different interior survey waypoint behavior.
It would be very important (for me) to have the ends of each transect in the area scan use the 'stop and turn' functionality, and the interior waypoints (added by UGCS to maintain constant AGL) use 'adaptive banked turn'. The reason this is important
Read more…RTL AGL
Feature request. Have UGCS auto calculate a safe RTL AGL altitude. This would consider situations where RTL might be triggered via loss of telemetry or low battery on the back of a hill, as the RTL is relative to the home location, it would need to b
Read more…Warning: NO low battery RTL in UGCS auto mode for DJI Matrice (and perhaps all DJI?)
If you are in auto mode, your drone will continue the mission until it hits the default 10% at which point it will auto-land wherever it is located (in my case, would be a tree canopy). A huge risk if you conduct missions outside of telemetry range,

So I can export or make a backup copy in a different location. Thanks!
Read more…Save flight plan and load into multiple flights?
For post-processing LiDAR flights, it is required that I start and end each flight with 3 figure eight flight patterns. Is it possible for me to create a custom shape to enable doing this easily each time I plan a flight, such as the circle that is a
Read more…Trouble initiating 2nd mission after one completes
Using an m600, I flew a nice mission using the UGCS beta app (android). However following landing UGCS disconnected from the drone, and I was not able to get it to connect again. I restarted the app a few times, turned off UGCS on my PC and restarted

I've now experienced (in emulator) that the copter will fly to max allowable altitude once it returns home following pushing the 'return home' button. This would obviously not be desired if the RTL was due to the battery being low for example. Any id
Read more…Terrain and return home and joystick control
As far as I can tell, a copter or plane using UCGS will fly directly into a hill if return home or joystick control is used. I had expected it would follow terrain as it does when creating an initial waypoint or survey. This is a serious risk, especi

Anybody have any experience using UGCS with a fixed-wing? In particular, as relates to take-off and landing? And, what about hand launched vs. runway planes? And belly vs. wheel landings? I would love to see a mission of this. And any idea when a fun
