Learn how to use Dronelink for Waypoint missions. Start by creating a mission plan from a waypoints mission template, make some edits, preview it in 3D before flight, and fly it using the mobile app.
Watch the video first and review the main steps summarized below.
Step 1 - Open the Create Menu and Select the Waypoints Mission Template
Step 2 - Select a Location to Place the Waypoint Template Mission
The template Waypoints missions has 3 waypoints (A, B, and C) that define the flight path. Waypoint A set the camera to focus on the point of interest A, and the Path Action "1" changes the altitude to 110 ft. Video is captured automatically.
Step 3 - Edit Flight Path
Adjust the flight path by dragging the Waypoints or Add new Waypoints by selecting the "+" button.
Step 4 - Set Actions at Waypoints or at Path Actions
Perform actions at a specific Waypoint, or along the path with Path Actions (purple circle). Actions include: setting the altitude, speed, focusing on a POI, and much more.
Click a Waypoint or Path Action to open the menu, and edit a parameter by selecting it.

Step 5 - Preview the Mission Before Flight
Use various tools such as the 3D Preview, Mission Preview or Mission Estimate before flight to understand what will happen in the field.
Step 6 - Name the Mission
Click on the Mission Plan Name to open the Plan Settings and give your mission a name.
Step 7 - Fly Mission in the Dronelink Mobile App
