Apply Volateq settings
Volafly automatically applies all required drone settings for the flight. If that fails (e. g. due to a bad health condition of the drone) it is possible to apply them them manually by clicking “Apply Volateq Settings”. It is not possible to take off, if the drone settings cannot be applied.
Selecting the Flight Route
On the left, select the flight route (1) corresponding the time slot on your shedule schedule (route names are the same).
...
Once you have selected the flight route you want to execute by clicking on it, it will appear on the screen. By collapsing the mission details, the start button will become visible. Simply click the start button, and the drone will take off and follow the pre-programmed route.
1: clicking the start button in the lower left triggers the drone to lift off and execute the flight route.
...
Warnings are issued if:
the flight route has been created for a different drone model
the distance between take of point and first waypoint is too large (flight route time)
the battery is below 85%
there is not enough storage capacity available
In all other cases, clicking the start button in the lower left triggers the drone to lift off and execute the flight route.
greater than 50m
the starting time is too early or too late for the selected flight route
the health status of your drone has serious warnings
The flight cannot be executed if:
the drone battery is below 60%
the drone has no SD card
there is less than 5GB storage capacity available. (A warning will appear if there is less then 25GB available)
You can switch between different views: flight mission screen and Camera views.Using the pause button will abort the mission and should only be used in emergency situations as the mission has to be repeated in this case
Pause Mission and Resume
...
A flight mission can now be paused by holding the PAUSE button for 1 second.
When the mission is paused—or unexpectedly interrupted—the pilot retains full control of the drone, which will hover in place. In this state, Volafly offers two options:
Resume mission directly:
The drone continues the mission from the exact position where it was paused or interrupted.
→ Not recommended, as this may result in skipped Trackers or SCAs.Return to home or land manually, switch the battery, then resume the mission:
The drone will continue from the last completed waypoint.
Resume Mission
...
You can resume a mission from any waypoint. Click a waypoint and then “YES”. The drone will resume the selected mission from that waypoint.
Abort Mission
If you need to abort the mission (e. g. for emergency situations) either click the RTH button on your controller or hold the “ABORT”-Button for 1 second. The “ABORT”-Button switches to “PAUSE”-Button after the second waypoint. By click and hold the “ABORT”-Button the drone will interrupt the flight mission and hover. The “ABORT”-Button becomes a “GO HOME”-Button. Either fly home manually or click the “GO HOME”-Button to initiate RTH.
During the flight, it is important to avoid touching the joysticks and the zoom wheel. Any slight adjustments can unintentionally alter the flight settings, which could result in changes that may compromise the quality of the video footage, rendering it unusable for analysis. |
