Are there any specific dedicated forums for users of AutoPilot to exchange tips, information and help? I've only been using Autopilot for a few days. I've gone through all of the tutorials and flight school and I'm amazed by the capabilities and flexibility of the software. Understandably, the trade off for this much flexibility, is simplicity - but Auto Flight Logic has done an admirable job of masking that complexity by hiding it under "Basic", "Intermediate" and "Advanced" tabs in their interface!
I'm convinced that there is nothing that this software can't do! The only thing that limits what can be accomplished is your imagination!
At $40 (CAD), AutoPilot was a steal! Flight school and the tutorials cover all of the advanced functionality very well, but the documentation and tutorials seems to be a little bit light on the basics. There are some pretty simple thing's that aren't covered - and are probably obvious or thought to be common knowledge - but I'll be damned if I can figure some of them out.
Where can I go to ask questions about using the Autopilot software from Auto Flight Logic? Or to get help and give help?
Here are some of the questions I have about using the Autopilot software:
1. If I just want to fly around and explore like I sometimes do with DJI Go, how do I:
A) Automatically take off?
B) Start and stop recording video?
C) Take a picture?
D) Ensure that the flight path, date/time, location and telemetry get added to my Flight Log in the DJI Go app? (Including the lower-res photos and videos)
2. How do I combine functions in a waypoint flight? For example, let's say I want to fly from A to B and then Orbit B twice, then fly to C and Orbit it once, then fly to D and create a 360 degree panorama and then finally fly to E, then F, G and back to A....?
I have plenty more questions - and although I realize I use stated that there is "nothing this software can't do" - I also have plenty of enhancement requests that would make this software even better for all of us! If there isn't currently a dedicated forum for AutoPilot users - what needs to happen to get one created?
Thanks in advance to all who reply.
