Faster Altitude
When
Faster Altitude
is activated the drone will ascend and descend faster. This can
significantly improve the altitude position of the drone when
Track Altitude
is enabled. This is an
experimental option and is disabled by default.
This option is upon release (firmware version 1.0.0) disabled by default and marked
as experimental due to insufficient testing and usage statistics. Initial testing indicates
that this option improves altitude tracking performance when tracker rapidly descends in
elevation.
Takeoff
After selecting a takeoff mode (
Quick Staak
,
Water Staak
or
Pro Staak
), the system prepares for
liftoff. Initially both the tracker and the drone require a good GPS fix before they can takeoff.
This can take minutes depending on the location and weather conditions.
In the screen shown above, the Staaker drone needs to improve its GPS signal and has an
estimated error of radius 1.25 meters. Both tracker and drone needs an estimated error less
than 5 meters before takeoff can be engaged.
⚠
Note that the GPS position error estimate is a best-effort estimate and might not be
correct.
