The DeltaQuad EVO uses Auterion Mission Control (AMC) as its primary Ground Control Station (GCS). The Ground Control Station consists of buttons and has been optimized for use with touchscreen devices.
If you have ordered a Ground Control Station with your DeltaQuad EVO it will have been installed and tested before it was shipped to you.
To install Auterion Mission Control on a separate device such as a laptop or desktop computer, please refer to the Auterion Mission Control Installation Manual. After a successful installation make sure to follow the First Steps.
When starting Auterion Mission Control by default the Fly View will be selected.
Auterion Mission Control offers two main views. In the Fly View, you execute and monitor missions. The Plan View is used to plan autonomous missions for your vehicle. Once the mission is planned and uploaded to the DeltaQuad EVO, you switch to the Fly View to perform the Pre-flight checks and execute the mission.
The application drop-down menu will open. The blue colored tab is the active view. To switch to the other view simply click on the respective tab.
The following two chapters will explain in detail the layout of the Fly View and the Plan View.
The application menu has four more tabs to choose from.
Tab | View | Description |
---|---|---|
Vehicle Setup | Vehicle configuration, including sensor calibration and safety actions. | |
Photos | View photos and videos downloaded from the vehicle. | |
User Acount | Login or logout of Auterion account. This associates pilots with flights on Auterion Suite. | |

You can switch between the two views by clicking on the Menu Icon .
There are two modes Auterion Mission Control can run in. The Normal mode and the Advanced mode. When tapping five times on the Menu icon a pop-up window will appear with the option to switch to Advanced mode.
