3.9.2. Mission planning
You will maximize flight time when you take your time to plan your missions. Decide on
a path and choose position and camera angle before taking-off. Be aware of the size of
the area in which you plan to fly. Always ensure the Intel® Falcon™ 8+ UAV has enough
battery capacity to fly back to the home position – even if the wind unexpectedly
increases.
Note
All directional indications are always referring to the point of view of the UAV.
Depending on the heading of the UAV, directions may be different from the point
of view of the pilot.
CAUTION: TO ENSURE SAFE OPERATION ALL PILOTS MUST
ALWAYS FOLLOW THE SAFETY GUIDELINES AND THE SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS IN “SAFETY FIRST” ON PAGE 7. WE STRONGLY
RECOMMEND ATTENDING BASIC TRAINING AND TO FREQUENTLY
PRACTICE SESSIONS IN HEIGHT-MODE!
