Is it possible to assign a radio channel (and toggle switch) on a Futaba radio to allow the ability to manually record waypoints while flying in any of the non-auto pilot modes (manual, altitude or position) with an Alta 8 Pro and QGroundControl? (As opposed to only adding waypoints in the mission planning mode of the app prior to flying.)
I would like to manually fly the mission slowly to confirm no obstruction with building/obstructions, record the waypoints as I go, then use the autonomous mode to repeat the mission over and over for repeated camera recording for a cinema production.
Create a new Plan using QGC while the vehicle is in the air. You can add a waypoint to the plan, then select the hamburger dropdown on the right, select Editor position, from the dialog change the waypoint position to be the position of the vehicle.
I’ve been trying to find this information, thanks.
I am just at the very start of planning my first build so I’m unfamiliar with most software.
Could I ask you if I am trying to do the same as the above but also capture the gimbal position (to frame shots at waypoints) would/could this be done?
Also would that menu you mention stay open so successive waypoints could be added with out the need to navigate through each time?
I am used to Yuneec’d Curved Cable Cam if you are familiar, and trying to build something to replicate this function.
Many Thanks
