Hotkey to add current Pos as Waypoint #4275

Open tops4u opened 7 years ago

tops4u commented 7 years ago

While flying survey Missions it would be good to have a Hotkey (on Computers) or a Softkey (on Mobile Devices without Keyboard) in order to mark the UAVs current Postion as a future Waypoint. So that the mission (Survey) can be continued while interesting areas can be marked for a visit after the survey mission.

This type of Waypoint should be possible to preconfigure in advance (i.e. height, etc) .

@DonLakeFlyer : It would be very nice to have this feature within the next 3-4 Weeks. This could also be a crude 1st Implementation that just adds a Waypoint out of the current position without any Preconfiguration.
