11.1 Flight Controls

The left-hand side features user-friendly flight controls on this screen for take-off, landing, RTL (Return to Launch), pause, and resume.

1. Take-Off :- After clicking on Take-Off, the ARM and take-off commands are transmitted to the RPA. The RPA will perform basic Pre-flight checks and prompt the user to take off. If everything is in order, the user can initiate the flight by clicking on the Take-Off button.

2. Land :- The Land button facilitates the landing of the RPA. Upon clicking it, the RPA will decelerate, cease flying, and return to the designated landing point. This button is active only if a flight has already taken off. If the take-off command has not been given, the button will remain disabled.

3. RTL (Return to home) :- Return to Land (RTL) is used for an emergency landing at home. The device will find the shortest distance to land at home. If the rally points are added to the plan, then the device will check the minimum distance between either the home or rally point for landing. The device will select a minimum distance for a safe landing.

4. Pause :- The pause command instructs the RPA to pause its operation. In this state, the RPA will hover at its current location, entering a 'hovering' mode. When the pause is activated, the RPA will allow the resume action to be enabled.

5. Resume :- The resume command directs the RPA to resume its operation. In this state, the RPA will continue the flight from the point where it was paused.
