Hello everyone,

Its been some time since I posted on here, hope everyone is well.  I am curious if there is a way to import a KML line file for linear flight planning.  I was thinking it sure would be nice to import a centerline and plan a linear flight off that.  I've only imported polygons for creating flight lines over an area.  I tried this for this corridor but its so tight, it doesn't even build flight lines in the polygon.  I'm guesing this is something you may have to do in Terra.

Thanks in advance,

Drew

I feel silly, I imported a KML line file and it does just this! Sorry folks.

You need to create a path KML instead of a polygon. This will work on Linear flight mission.

Thanks for cracking the code about a year after the fact

Hahaha!  patiam, how are you doing?  I got an M300 with the P1 and now the P4RTK just collects dust.  Hope you are doing well!

Hey CoastalCapt you old skyrat! Good to see you.  I'm great. Haven't sold the powers that be on an M300 (yet) so for now we're making very good use of P4Rs, P4Ms, M210V2s, M2Ps, and a few fixed wings, some VTOL.

My wish list does include an M300, as well as FreeFly Alta X and Anafi Ai platforms, for various reasons (non-DJI being a major one).
