Create waypoints
The drone manufacturers do not all offer a function to create waypoints in advance and let the drone automatically fly a route. Only with the Air3 came for the first time a waypoint function. Far more mature but only in combination with the cell phone there are other software solutions. But CAUTION!!! The use of such software can shorten the warranty and cause crashes. Therefore no support from the manufacturers.
