> = Example 1 - triggering at each waypoint = In this example, we fly over an area of approximately 180m x 80m (see also [[#Sprung2|Distance]]). <
> The starting point on the field is top left (red arrow). {{ http://gallery3.mikrokopter.de/var/resizes/intern/KopterTool_ab_V2_0/OSD/WP-Generator-01/WP-Flug-Karte.jpg?m=1450266646 }} These requirements should be respected: * the flight series should go beyond the short side of the field * every 10 meters the copter should trigger the camera without stopping at the waypoints * the flight rows have a distance of 12 meters * the flying height should be 30 meters * airspeed 3m / s * and the camera to look down in flightdirection <

> The copter should trigger all 10m and the rows should have a distance of 12 meters. For 80m we need then 9 waypoints in "X" direction (80:10=8 +1=9 => one WP in 0m - 10m - 20m ... 80m) <

> '''Step 3''' <
> In this example the grid for the waypoint flight should be simular with the field. So we have to change the "Rotation". Here we need 170°:<
> * '''"Rotation [°]"''' = 170°. '''TIP:''' You can point the grid in every direction you need. So you can align the orientation on a road or a field. <
><
> '''Step 4''' <
> Now we set the altitude (30m), the camera tilt (down = 90°), triggering for Out1 (to get pictures), the airspeed (3m/s) and the line of sight for the copter (straight to the flight path). We have to set: <

> When you start your copter you will "park" him in any height. When you now activate the waypoint flight the copter can climb automatically to the set altitude when you set a value under Climb rate. If you set here a "0" the copter will not climb up/down to a set altitude. He will hold the altitude where you "park" him. Tip: <
> To slow down a little bit when the copter reach the waypoint at the end of a line, we can activate "Add 1sec Curve !DelayTime". Then the copter will reach this waypoint softer. <
