Falcon™ 8+ UAS to the corner of the rectangle, where
the mapping flight is supposed to start with the first image. Adjust the heading (yaw) of
the system to define the direction of the flight. Use the video preview as a help to
precisely define the direction.

Falcon™ 8+ UAS will first fly to the calculated altitude and then
perform the mapping flight with the set parameters.
