J150/J70 Correct a Shifted Boundary on the Remote
To correct field boundary inaccuracies when the drone's physical location does not match its position on the remote's screen follow these steps:
There are several reasons boundaries created in advance may not line up with the image on Google maps when it is time to fly:
- Inaccurate Google Maps data - georeferencing on new satellites photos was shifted from true coordinates (most common reason)
- Poor internet connection
- Radio or magnetic interference
Initial Troubleshooting:
-
Clear the cache data on the remote, as this may resolve mapping shifts.
Verification: To determine if a shift is necessary, fly the drone manually to a physical corner of the field without referencing the screen.
-
Once positioned, compare the drone's actual location to the boundary corner shown on the remote.
Shifting the Boundary:
-
Select the field from the list or demand and enter the Survey mode (bottom right corner).
- Click the boundary icon in the top right corner and zoom out, so the entire field is in view.
-
Choose "translation" to open the D-pad, which allows you to shift the entire boundary.
- OR add a "Calibration Point' to move the boundary point to the drone's current physical location
-
Zoom in to assist with precision while adjusting the boundary points.
Saving Changes:
-
Once the boundary is correctly aligned, save your changes and confirm.
-
The system will display both the old and new boundaries for comparison.
Select the updated boundary to proceed with operation.
-
Observe the drone's physical location and distance from obstacles during flight to confirm the flight route is safe.
