The video shows a simple field experiment with Asctec FireFly UAV using the Autopilot Control Software to visit two waypoints in a football field and come back to its initial location.
First, we connect to the UAV through the Xbee module connected to the PC and we enable the GPS mode using the Remote Control. Second, we start a GPS mission, load the map of the football field and specify graphically the GPS locations of the waypoints to be visited. We set two waypoints, one on the center of the field and the second near the goal to the north. Then, we manually raise the UAV at a safe height (e.g. 5 meters) with the remote control, and start the mission through the autopilot control software. The UAV will start visiting each UAV in the specified order and will stay up to three second in each UAV. Finally, we send a command to the UAV so that it comes back to home location. Finally, we manually land the UAV.
We are working towards making a cooperative mission with two UAVs to visit a distinct set of target locations.
