DeltaQuad flies to after it has ascended vertically to the altitude defined in this first waypoint. i.e. if the
first waypoint is set at 60 meters altitude and 300m north of the current position, the DeltaQuad will
ascend to 60 meters, transition to forward flight and proceed 300m north.
Select the "add waypoint" button.
Click on the map to set the desired position.
Set the desired transition altitude. A minimum altitude of 25 meters is recommended, the takeoff altitude
should never be below 20m.
Note: The first waypoint should be at minimum 300m, and at maximum 800m away from the takeoff position.
Note: The vehicle has been designed to transition into the direction it was when positioned on the ground.
This allows the operator to perform upwind transitions, regardless of the mission plan. During the transition
phase, the vehicle may travel as much as 300 meters. The mission plan should account for this.
Note: During the transition phase the vehicles heading may change due to wind influence. The mission plan
should account for this.
Set intermediate waypoints.
The DeltaQuad will proceed to these waypoints, continuing in fixed-wing mode.
Click on the map to select the desired position.
Set the desired altitude the vehicle should have when reaching this position.
Note: the vehicle will fly from its current altitude to the defined altitude linearly and reach the target altitude
when arriving at the waypoint.
Note: The ground control station will indicate the Gradient (percentage of climb along the path). The
gradient should not exceed 15%.
