Auto Connect FCB

Connect to the flight controller when Andruav starts.

Auto Start App

Start Andruav when the phone starts.

Ignore Mobile Sensors

Never use the IMU or the GPS of the phone, also when the flight controller is offline.

Setting

What it does

Front/Back Camera

Select the camera for the stream.

Enable RC CAM Switch

Change the camera with an RC channel.

RC CAM Channel, RC CAM PWM min

The RC channel, and the PWM value (typically 1800) above which the next camera is selected.

Send and Save Image

Send photos to the ground station at once. The phone always keeps a copy.

Back / Front Camera Resolution

The stream resolution of each camera. Photos use the same resolution.

STUN / TURN Servers

DroneEngage Native

Settings - DroneEngage native comm-loss failsafe

Setting

What it does

Comm-loss flight failsafe

When the link to the server stops, de_mavlink sets the flight controller to the failsafe mode. It needs no app screen and no ground station.

Failsafe flight mode

The mode to set: rtl (default), smart_rtl, land, loiter, pos_hold or brake. An unknown name gives rtl.

Warning

Test each failsafe in SITL before a real run. See Andruav Simulation using SITL.
