Rotating copter +/- 90 degress in flight direction during waypoint mission #1877

Closed dl2ecc closed 6 years ago

dl2ecc commented 6 years ago

Hi all, if I'm flying in a waypoint missing, it would be nice to rotate the copter in a +/- 90 degree angle to the flight direction. The copter should stay in this angle during the whole missing. This allows to fly over solar parks while taking infrared videos from solar panels. This would be a nice feature for the next tower release.

Regards Wolfgang

This isn't a current issue with the code and is really a feature request so shouldn't be in the issues list but on the discussion forum instead. Further ArduPilot already does this. In your mission you need to specify a CONDITION_YAW command. See the documentation here. http://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/mission-command-list.html#mission-command-list-condition-yaw Thanks, Grant.

You can also set region of interest points along the route and copter will point at those.

Discussion can be had here https://discuss.ardupilot.org/c/ground-control-software/tower

Hi Grant,

 

thanks for your answer.

I didn't know this function.

I'm going to test it in my next mission.

 

Best Regards

Wolfgang
