Planning a Field or Generating a Boundary
Accessing the "Plan Field" Menu:
Go to the "Plan Field" option at the bottom right-hand corner of the home screen.
Choosing Your Method:
You will have three options:
Walk with the RC: Walk the field while carrying the remote controller.
Fly the Aircraft: Use the drone to map the boundaries.
Walk with RTK: Use an RC connected to an RTK base station for increased accuracy.
For example, if you select Walk with the RC, you will see your location as a blue dot on the Google Map. The dot will move as you rotate and walk.
GPS Accuracy:
In the top left-hand corner of the screen, you'll see how accurate the GPS signal is, which is important for creating a precise boundary.
Adding Waypoints:
As you walk, tap "Add Waypoint" on the right-hand side (or press the C2 button on the RC) to mark your position.
Make sure to move in a consistent direction, either counterclockwise (CCW) or clockwise (CW), to avoid errors in your field boundary.
Visualizing the Field:
As you add waypoints, you'll see the field boundary appear, along with a possible flight route in the middle.
Saving the Field:
Once you're satisfied with the boundary, select "Save" at the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.
Enter a name for the field (required) and the crop type (optional), then hit Save again.
Editing the Field:
After marking some points, you can further edit the field. You have multiple options for adding points:
Crosshair: Add points using the map interface.
RC: Continue walking with the RC to add more waypoints.
Drone: Use the drone to mark additional points.
This process ensures flexibility in planning your field, whether walking, using RTK, or flying the drone for more complex boundaries.
