The Settings menu can be accessed via the AMC menu.


General

The General Settings serve as the primary location for application-level configuration. Configurable options include display units, miscellaneous settings, fly view settings, plan view settings, and storage. These values can be adjusted even when no vehicle is connected. Settings that require a vehicle restart are indicated in the user interface.

The following list outlines the most frequently used settings for day-to-day operations.

Units

  • Switches between the metric and imperial systems.

Miscellaneous

  • Color Scheme: Switches between Indoor and Outdoor color profiles.

  • UI Scaling: Adjusts the scaling of the user interface.

  • Always Start AMC in Advanced Mode: Ensures AMC opens in Advanced Mode by default.

Fly View

  • Use Preflight Checklist: Enforces the interactive Preflight Checklist.

  • Enable Terrain Collision Checks: Keep this enabled for safety!

  • Display MGRS Coordinates: Toggles MGRS coordinates; when disabled, the Lat-Lon decimal system is active.

  • Altitude Mode (HGT/MSL/AGL): By default, set to HGT, which measures altitude relative to the Home Location.

  • Guided Minimum/Maximum Altitude: Affects the values displayed on the Altitude Slider in Fly View when adjusting altitude.

  • Guided Maximum Distance: Indicates the maximum orbital distance relative to the vehicle's location.

Plan View

  • Default Waypoints Altitude: Sets the default altitude for waypoints, which can also be adjusted in the Plan View.

  • Waypoints Maximum Altitude: Specifies the maximum waypoint altitude, typically set to the altitude ceiling permitted by laws and regulations.

  • VTOL Transition Distance: Defines the distance at which the vehicle transitions from multirotor mode (Hover) to fixed-wing mode (Aero).

  • Missions Do Not Require Takeoff Item: Important for quick takeoffs, mission planning, and uploading in mid-air.

  • Display Simulated Path During Mission Planning: A helpful tool that simulates the flight path of the Evo based on the programmed mission items.

  • Enable Mission Cloud Sync: When utilizing Auterion’s cloud features, mission plans can be synchronized with the Auterion Suite.

Telemetry Logs from Vehicle

  • Save Log After Each Flight: Basic telemetry logging in AMC is enabled by default. To disable it, uncheck the checkbox. This setting is relevant for missions where no telemetry data should be recorded, not even on the GCS.
