Delivery Mission

This section explains on how to create mission, add and navigate waypoints, and choose a finish action for the mission.

To make a delivery mission follow these steps:

  • Navigate to Delivery, and click on Mission Overview.

  • While creating a mission overview you have to configure:

    1. Name the mission: Add a name to the mission.

    2. Mission Speed: Set the default mission speed to adjust the drone's movement speed from the take-off point to the last waypoint. The speed can range between 1 to 60 m/s for both Mission and waypoint speeds will specify at what speed the drone will execute the delivery.

    3. Mission altitude: Define the default mission altitude to adjust the drone's altitude from take-off point to last.

    4. Mission Radius: Adjust the mission radius to enable curved path movement of the drone past all waypoints. (Note: enabling radius cancels waypoint actions if set)

    5. Finish action: Set the finish action for the drone when it reaches the last waypoint of the mission: Return to Home, Land, Round trip or Hover.

Mission Overview
  • To add more waypoints to the mission, move your cursor onto the map and click on the desired location. Repeat the same to add more waypoints.

  • To insert waypoints between pick-up and drop-off locations, select the pick-up waypoint and click the “+” icon.

Adding Waypoints
Waypoint Settings

Once the waypoint mission has been executed, the drone will have to perform a finish action. You may select any one of the four finish actions:

  1. Hover - The drone will execute hover after finishing the mission. If no waypoints are given after the drop-off, the drone will execute hover at the last waypoint (drop-off) and end the mission. If waypoints are given after the drop-off, the drone will land at the drop-off, pause the mission, cover the remaining waypoints, and hover at the last waypoint before finally ending the mission.

  2. Land - The drone will execute a land at the last waypoint. If no waypoints are given after the drop-off, the drone will execute land at the last waypoint (drop-off) and end the mission. If waypoints are given after the drop-off, the drone will land at the drop-off, pause the mission, cover the remaining waypoints, and land at the last waypoint before finally ending the mission.

  3. Return to Home (RTH) - The drone will execute return to home after finishing the mission. If no waypoints are given after the drop-off, the drone will execute RTH at the last waypoint (drop-off) and end the mission. If waypoints are given after the drop-off, the drone will land at the drop-off, pause the mission, cover the remaining waypoints, and trigger RTH at the last waypoint before finally ending the mission.

  4. Round trip - Drone will return to the original location after finishing the mission, taking the planned mission path for return travel. If no waypoints are given after the drop-off, the drone will land at the drop-off, pause the mission, and then return to the pick-up location taking the planned mission path. If waypoints are given after the drop-off, the drone will land at the drop-off, pause the mission, cover the remaining waypoints, and then return to the pick-up location taking the planned mission path.

After setting the mission speed, adding the waypoints and selecting the finish action, click on "Create" to save the mission. A prompt will ask to send the mission details to the receiver, click “Yes” to send the details to the receiver.
