Cube-fly

Camera drone chosen, it is important to select as first because it defines all parameters of drone mission.

Aspect ratio available on the camera.

Front overlap of photos.

Lateral overlap of photos.

Angle rotation of mission.

Length of extra path when the drone has to come back on the path, it guarantees to cover fully the path and will turn by a curve instead to stop, rotate and restart with big saving battery and time.

If activated the Tilt will be -90° (vertical).

Distance between Drone and terrain, if the terrain aware will not be calculated this distance remains constant and it is very important to take off from the highest point.

Note that the overlap is not guaranteed because the ground distance become variable.

Time between each shot, bigger values give slower speed and better quality.

Note: be careful that this parameter influence also the total time of flight.

Size in cm of one pixel in the photo.

Speed of drone, smaller values gives better photos quality.

In general to get a good quality the speed has to be less than 5 m/s, best quality less than 4 m/s

Total flight time without considerate the wind speed.

Better to stay to 75% of battery time possibilities taking in consideration the life of the battery. Older they are less it the autonomy.

Approximate number of shots

Path development length.

Alternate take off and landing point.

In general it is preferable to start from the furthest point and end at the closest point.
