Setting up your reference altitude during GTL (Go To Location) missions

Choose Your Altitude Reference between:

  • Relative to Takeoff (RTL): Measures altitude relative to the drone’s launch point.

  • Above Ground Level (AGL): Adjusts altitude dynamically based on terrain variations.

  • Access the detailed terrain profile graph to analyze elevation changes and compare the Go To Location (GTL) target elevation for precise and safe navigation.

Pre Flight Caution Alerts and Warnings

Caution Alerts and Warnings: If the planned flight altitude exceeds limits or creates a conflict with the terrain, FlytBase provides an immediate warning, ensuring compliance with safety protocols.

Operators would be able to see an advance warning under the Terrain Profile Graph in case the flight path would come in close contact with the ground (within 20 meters) at any point when the Go To Location (GTL) point is selected. In this case a review of the flight path is strongly recommended.

Operators would be able to see an advance warning over the Terrain Profile Graph in case any point on flight path exceeds the maximum altitude limit specified for the drone in device settings when Go To Location (GTL) point is selected. In this case a review of the flight path is strongly recommended.

Operators would see a warning under the Terrain Profile Graph in case any point on the flight path is within collision proximity with the ground when the Go To Location (GTL) point is selected to mitigate the collision risk. In this case, you would need to redefine the altitude parameter.
