Ignis Operations Manual
Drone Amplified
Use Tablet Location:
If this is enabled, the app will utilize the tablet’s location capabilities
to display the user’s location on the map. Location must also be enabled on the tablet for
this to work. However, locating the device will consume a significant amount of the
tablet’s battery power.
Airspace indicator altitude:
This is the height above ground level of a visual guide you
can see when planning waypoint missions. This can be set to your aviation adminis-
tration’s mandated maximum altitude above ground level that drones can fly at, which
assists with compliance.
Low altitude warning:
This is the height above ground level of a visual guide you can see
when planning waypoint missions. This can be set to the height of nearby trees or
obstacles, which helps you fly at a safe altitude. If the drone flies below this altitude, a
low altitude warning will be displayed on the screen, and a warning tone will play. The
warning tone plays a low (440Hz) tone followed by a high (620Hz) tone four times.
Map Style:
Sets the map style to use. You can choose between Satellite and Streets, Out-
doors (Topographic), Satellite, and Streets. When you download maps, they will be
downloaded in this style.
Kmz/Kml:
overlay icon scale Scales up or down icons that are part of Kmz and Kml
overlays.
Units :
The app’s units can be set to Metric (km/h), Metric (m/s), Imperial (mi/h), Imperial
(ft/s), or Nautical (kn). Speeds are displayed in the units that are in the parenthesis.
Other units are displayed in Metric (m, C, hectares) or Imperial units (ft, F, acres).
Latitude/Longitude:
Format Changes the format that latitudes and longitudes will be
displayed in. Options are: Decimal Degrees; Degrees, Decimal Minutes; and Degrees,
Minutes, Seconds.
Flight telemetry in bottom display:
Adjusts what telemetry gets displayed along the
bottom of the flight screen. Options are: Horizontal Ground Speed; Vertical Speed;
Latitude and Longitude; Distance from home; Altitude above mean sea level (from
elevation map); Altitude above mean sea level (sensitive altimeter). If you select too
many options, it might be too long for your screen to display, so you may need to disable
some of the less important options in order to enable the ones you want. There are two
measurements of altitude above mean sea level. The first uses the elevation of the
takeoff location from the elevation maps and adds the drone’s altitude above the takeoff
