# Patrol（Custom Waypoint）

## Route Settings

### Reversed Route

Reverse the route.

### Point of Interest

The position where the aircraft's head is always pointed.

### Height of POI

Sets the height of the POI target. When the gimbal mode is set to custom, when the height of POI changes, the appropriate gimbal pitch angle for each waypoint will be automatically calculated to ensure that the aircraft camera always points to the target.

### Flight Height

Changes the flight height of all waypoints globally.

### Gimbal Mode

**Manual：**&#x47;imbal pitch is controllable in the flight.

**Custom：**&#x47;imbal pitch will be set to preset value in the flight.

### Turn Mode

**Normal:** Aircraft will fly to the location of waypoint, then adjust heading to next waypoint.

**Curved:** Aircraft will not reach the location of waypoint, but make a curve transition to the next course.

{% hint style="info" %}
Due to the differences in the flight controller and programs, the arc turning path drawn on the map can only be used as a reference, and does not mean that the aircraft will fly along the arc accurately.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
Most waypoint action will not be executed in curved mode.
{% endhint %}

### Shoot In Interval

Turn global equidistant photography on or off. After it is turned on, the aircraft will calculate the distance from each point and take photos at equal intervals.

### Photo Distance

Sets the distance for taking photos globally. This parameter overrides the parameters set individually for the waypoint.

## Waypoint Settings

### Custom Heading

Sets the heading when the aircraf reaches the waypoint.

### Heading Clockwise

Sets the turning direction from current waypoint to next waypoint.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Case:** waypoint 1 sets the heading to 90° due east, and waypoint 2 sets the heading to 0° due north. When the clockwise transition heading is turned on, during the flight from waypoint 1 to waypoint 2, the nose of the aircraft will rotate 270° clockwise and return to true north when it reaches waypoint 2. If the clockwise transition heading is turned off, the nose of the aircraft will rotate -90° counterclockwise, returning to true north when it reaches waypoint 2.
{% endhint %}

### Shoot In Interval

Shoot photos at equal intervals from the selected waypoint.

### Photo Distance

The distance interval of taking photos.

### Action

Add actions for the waypoint. Maximum action number is 15.
