File structure of image files
Photo images are stored on the payload SD card with the following described
conventions.
Every time, the Intel Falcon 8+ UAV is switched on, a new image directory with a
consecutive number will be created on the payload SD card.
Videos are stored on the camera SD card,
which is inserted in the back of the camera
underneath the battery lid.
By default, video files recorded during a
mission can automatically (after a confir-
mation, see figure “Confirmation of video
file transfer” on page 58) be transferred to
the payload SD card.
If access to the camera SD card is neces-
sary:
1. Open the lid by pushing and holding
the OPEN slider to the right, while
simultaneously pushing the lid in the
direction indicated by the arrow.
2. Remove the micro SD card from the
slot by lightly pressing it inwards, after
which the card pops out for easy
removal.
If using the payload in hot environments
with direct exposure to sunlight, please
attach the supplied camera sun cover onto
the camera before the flight (see pictures
to the left). The cover reflects sunlight and
allows the camera to operate reliably.
To attach the cover:
1. Mount the cover onto the camera
2. Tilt it slightly to the left.
3. Turn the cover in the direction of the
CLOSE arrow, to lock the cover in
place.
To remove the cover:
1. Keep the release latch (1) pressed
while turning the cover in the direction
of the OPEN arrow and lift it up.
