Accuracy waypoints

Steven_Teacher · July 10, 2019, 5:26pm

Hi!

I flew a mission on my standard plane. It figured out that the autopilot was cheating a little bit, so it flew around the waypoints. Is it possible to set up a higher accuracy?

Many thanks!

Hi @Steven_Teacher ,
What do you exactly mean by “higher accuracy” ? Do you want to go over the waypoints? The waypoint switching distance is based on the L1 distance which is calculated from:
$L_{1_{distance}}=\frac{1}{\pi}L_{1_{damping}}L_{1_{period}}\left \| \vec{v}_{{xy}_{ground}} \right \|$

Hi Steven,
Did you find a solution to this? I also am hoping there is a way to set a minimum radius around each waypoint.

Cheers,

Hi!

I’ve just added more waypoints and now it’s fine for me.
