You have now just few buttons to set and start the navigation:
triangle, or if you have exactly planned your triangle before the take off. When you press the button
"unassigned", the list of waypoints will appear in the display of C-pilot EVO. You may choose any
waypoint as "Vertex 1" and , then, as "Vertex 2". Once you have selected both, C-Pilot EVO will
show the minimum and maximum triangle length. (normally you do not use these buttons!)
by pressing the "Trash" icon you can cancel a fixed vertex. This can be useful in flight if
you want to reset your triangle (cancel both Turn Points) or if you want to renew the
Vertex 1 (in the AUTO mode the Vertex 2 is renewed automatically).

pilot will not see any graphics, because it is very likely that he just flies in quite straight direction and
