AMC 1.19.5
Compatibility
Please use the following version, or newer, of Auterion OS with this release of AMC:
What's new
Multi-GCS with handoff support
Markers
Improved video marker overlay on video stream to be less obstructive
Improve marker drawer such that it is possible to keep it open and drop multiple markers
added ability to enter markers from coordinates besides being able to drop them on the map
added ability to visualize marker coordinates and elevation by clicking on them in the map view
added ability to delete all markers, not just individual ones
Improved Center Field of View coordinate accuracy by computing the ground crossing elevation and added Center Field of View visualization on the map for ISR payloads, Trillium, and NextVision
Added support for AGL mission planning for waypoints and landing pattern for VTOLs
Extended VTOL/Fixed-Wing Follow Mode to be enabled in POI mode, not just Track mode
On 4-axis joysticks, it is possible to enable gimbal controls on the throttle joystick for VTOL/Fixed-Wing. The setting in available in the camera settings
What improved
Plan View
Added units for Orbit Time and Orbit Altitude orbit radius
Changed Orbit Time time unit from seconds to minutes
Improved Altitude Plot waypoint numbering such that it is consistently at the top of the plot and improved lines connecting the waypoint number to the x-axis
Fixed mismatch between waypoint number on the map and in the Altitude Plot when adding a POI to the mission
Increased clickable area to switch altitude mode between HGT, AGL and MSL in the Plan View Altitude Plot
added ability to set Survey flight speed for VTOLs when planning without a vehicle connected. Once the vehicle connects, the flight speed is set to airspeed trim value
Removed constraint on trigger distance for VTOLs
Fixed trigger interval calculation for VTOLs
Improved VTOL/Fixed-Wing surveys by enforcing not taking distances in the turnaround radius
Increased VTOL Land Pattern maximum landing distance from 200m to 300m
Increased VTOL Pattern maximum turnaround distance from 200 to 500m
Improve VTOL takeoff minimum, default and maximum altitude values. They are now set to 15m, 50m, and 100m respectively.
Fly View
Added ability to close link loss warning pop-up
Fixed Figure 8 not re-aligning as the POI location changed
Fixed markers not being overlaid on the video feed after a link loss
Fixed MavLink Altitude message handling such that the vehicle altitude updates in GPS denied conditions
Exposed VTOL front-transition button when the vehicle is in descent flight mode in AMC normal mode. The vehicle will switch into Altitude flight mode and then transition into aerodynamic flight.
Improved map lines visibility by adding a contrasting border
Fixed VTOL/Fixed-Wing Follow mode getting disabled when the option to set the POI at the center of the Orbit was previously selected
Changed POI label not to update with the Center Field of View coordinate from the payload. The location where the payload is looking at is displayed in the camera projection on the map
Added battery cycles to vehicle battery status dropdown in the top toolbar
Improved RemoteID error notification in case the WiFi module isn’t responding
Fixed creating a Figure 8 by setting it up from coordinate entry
Fixed duplicated orbit visuals when creating an Orbit from coordinate entry
Removed ability to set the home location (S on the map) as the active mission waypoint
Improved transitions between gimbals modes. When the payload loses the tracked object, Track mode is kept enabled such that the pilot only need to click on the video feed to re-select the object
Fixed error on KML import
Fixed Home Approaches being interactive when video is primary
Added ability to set markers on top of Fly View labels like POI, Orbit or mission waypoints
Improved “Cancel POI” and “Cancel Follow” buttons
Guarded against being able to resume a mission when in VTOL Hover or when already in Return mode (first set to Hold)
Fixed POI command not being executed when there isn’t any terrain data available
Fixed Hold command not always being executed due to missing terrain data
Fixed Fly View commands not being executed when the altitude mode is HGT and there isn’t any terrain data available
Limited Fly View terrain collision checks to the maximum guided actions distance not to overload resource constrained GCS
Fixed Figure8 visuals when the radius is different than default and the Figure8 is re-aligned towards a new POI
Fixed Fly View Orbit and Figure8 direction arrow not being displayed when toggled in fast succession
When a VTOL transitions into hover, any existing Hold to Confirm popups are canceled for actions that are meant to be executed in aerodynamic flight like Orbit and Figure 8
Improved invalid mission handling: when an invalid mission is uploaded to the vehicle, make sure that in the Fly View the previous valid mission available on the vehicle is displayed
General
Improved app stability on vehicle connect and disconnect
Fixed wrong joystick calibration helper text
Removed joystick deadband calibration for joysticks that don’t support it
Enabled joystick calibration when there isn’t a vehicle connected
Fixed gimbal joysticks not sending commands to the vehicle after a joystick calibration
Maps & Terrain: improved error messaging and added dataset description
Changed Radio tab to only be available when the vehicle is set up to use an RC
Fixed OS keyboard remaining interactive when setting up a POI, Orbit or Figure8 from coordinate entry
Improved Connection Manager icon visibility when in Outdoor mode
Improved wording of VTOL checklist for Takeoff and Return
