• In windy conditions the UAV may not always fly in a straight line between two
waypoints. Plan the mission accordingly.
• Always plan missions with enough height above ground. The UAV may temporarily
lose as much as 5 meters of height when flying between waypoints (due to
variations in barometric air pressure - drift in sensor values). Due to these
variations, it is recommended to plan missions at a height of at least 15 meters
above the highest object.
