rounded edges on top and bottom of the mapping path

Alexey Danilin

I tried to make a map plan in a Dronelink, but I don't see rounded edges on the top and the bottom. I have 90 degree sharp turns. How to get smooth turns?

Thanks

    I guess the real question is...if this is a mapping mission, why do you need rounded turns?  What is the use case you are trying to achieve?

    Time capture priority is what your looking for. Click on the map and go down to capture priority and select time.

    I don’t do mapping but I’ve created several over the last year to see what photos types will work and how to set maps up if I ever start using them. I like to test many different functions/ features as a learning process. The photos aren’t taken outside the map boundary so using the rounded corners won’t really matter unless you need time capture for a particular reason. If so then this link may help. Good luck.

    Alexy, what drone are you flying?  Honestly the banked turns has no impact on your map since your camera is (most likely) on a gimbal.  So when I fly Lidar, the unit is not on a gimbal so flying adaptive bank turns (rounded) is very important to keep the lidar unit nice and smooth the whole flight. But when I fly mapping missions with the Phantom 4 then banked turns is not important.
