sales representative.
It may be in the form of a ZIP file. Please store this file on your computer, if necessary
unzip it and follow the step by step instructions below.

ICC
Independent Camera Control (see “THE INDEPENDENT CAMERA
CONTROL (ICC)” on page 28). This function enables a second
operator to control the camera via a gamepad, which is con-
nected to the CTR, while the pilot can fully concentrate on flying.
Recommended for inspection flights. Usually video goggles are
used so that the second operator has an independent video pre-
view.
COI
With the Circle of Interest (COI) it is possible to fly an automated
360° circle around an object and take photos at predefined posi-
tions. These photos can later be processed by 3D modeling soft-
ware such as Agisoft PhotoScan to build a 3D model of the
object.
