It is possible to store and edit individual waypoints (GPS position, height, camera
heading, and camera pitch angle) onto a USB stick, which is inserted into the CTR. A
waypoint can later be recalled, and the Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAV will fly to this position
and take an image with the stored heading and pitch angle. Camera settings such as
shooting mode, or zoom, cannot be stored, and must be set manually before flight.
Multiple waypoints can be combined to create a path.
