It offers the possibility of choosing or drawing multiple shapes. Next you can make different settings for individual waypoints, such as the flight altitude, camera angle and point of interest, the point that the camera should aim at. The biggest differentiator of the app from other software on the market is the great flexibility to change, save and send planned missions from anywhere. You can simply plan from home, and then go and fly the mission with one click anywhere. And just with us you can create 3D Models with the app, send us the pictures and we calculate the model for you. No matter whether you want to shoot a stunning film, do a survey or an inspection, our app offers you flight templates that control the drone precisely and efficiently. Whether you're an experienced drone pilot or just starting out, our drone software provides you with the tools to make the most of your drone.

With the flight templates for terrain surveying and visualization, you can use the collected data to create precise and above all cost- and time-efficient maps and models of terrain, areas and any other structure such as buildings, masts, etc. yourself or have us create them for you. In addition, there are field-tested flight templates for inspections of the following object categories: Buildings including roof and facades and wind turbines. Key Features: - Intuitive Controls: Our app allows for seamless control of your drone. - Measurement Templates: Utilize our Ortho 2D and 3D templates for accurate measurements. - Inspection Templates: Simplify inspections with dedicated templates for facades, roofs, wind turbines, towers, and more. - Impressive 3D Models: Create breathtaking 3D models using our orbit and double-orbit templates. Other features: - Fully automatic flight of the drone - Very smooth curves due to a minimum distance of only 0.5 m between waypoints - Missions can be configured easily and conveniently from anywhere - Missions can be saved in the cloud and accessed from multiple devices In the free version, you can use the app for missions with up to 10 waypoints.
