solved Drone JTAC - Crazy climb in altitude when FAC before Orbit

[vctpil]

Hi,

If the FAC function is assigned before the orbit function, the drone climb in altitude (more than 5,000ft from initial altitude) and start to orbit. Most of the time, the FAC  function does not work.

FAC 1 : Orbit then FAC, the drone act as expected

FAC 2 : FAC then Orbot, the drone climb

Tracks and screenshots in attached.

Thanks,

Vincent

You don't need to tell it to orbit. The FAC task implies the drone will orbit anyway. Simply remove the Orbit task and let the drone do its job.

Good tip, never use it like that, does this mean that if the group moves, will the drone follow it in orbit wherever it goes?

Yes, it will.
