Aloha DT,
This is where my script says, "Be careful!" Oh, I already said that. How tall are the trees on that mountain?
One other caution, your bird is the P3 Standard. The P3S does not have object avoidance. When the P4 first came out, one of the Forum Members flew a Litchi mission and did not notice that two of his waypoints had altitude way too low (he forgot to set them) and another one went straight into the eve of a house (new house, not on the Google Earth photo). Fortunately the P4 had object avoidance. His video of the flight was very interesting even though it did not show him washing his pants after the flight - but you know he had to!
In that flight, the P4 almost came to a stop and then proceeded very slowly over bushes that had not been considered in the planning. After arriving safely at the waypoint, it then turned toward the next waypoint and right into the split rail of a fence where it stopped and went over The fence and sped into the eve of the house where it stopped again and went over the house to the final waypoint and the very relieved Forum Member.
Triple check each waypoint and find out the height of any potential obstacles in the flight zone. Around my house, I have Norfolk Pines and some of them get over 100 feet. I took my Phantom and took off from the bottom of the highest and closest, very tall Norfolk and then flew up to eye level of the top of the tree and got the altitude, 95 feet. I set all my waypoints a minimum of 120 feet higher than the Google Earth altitude of the waypoint. My RTH altitude is also 40 meters minimum.
Just some suggestions because this is too much fun!
Aloha and Drone On! |
