IF1200A Pilot Operating Handbook 20. Planning a Mission
20. Planning a Mission
This section presents the basics of setting up an autonomous mission in QGC and then
describes in detail how to create an example mission.
Once you are comfortable flying the aircraft, learning how to plan an autonomous mission
greatly expands the applications of the aircraft. The information in this section is taken from the
QGroundControl website, and the website should be referenced if you have any questions.
QGroundControl documentation has detailed information about planning an autonomous
mission at the following link:
https://docs.qgroundcontrol.com/master/en/PlanView/PlanView.html
If the aircraft starts behaving unexpectedly, dangerously or
abnormally during a mission, switch to Position mode to regain
control.
Planning a Mission in QGC
The figure below is a screenshot of a mission plan in QGroundControl. The mission starts with a
takeoff at the Planned Home position (H), flies through three waypoints, then lands on the last
waypoint (waypoint 3).
