UgCS Cloud (for MAVLink drones)

It is possible to use UgCS Cloud services for easier flight plan transfer to MAVLink drones. This involves uploading routes from the desktop application and downloading them to the "UgCS Cloud" mobile application for Android devices, which is located here.

This application should be used on the RCs with Mission Planner or QGroundControl. Flight plans are transferred in *.plan format.

Operations in the UgCS Cloud application

After successful login, the application will display all projects available in the Cloud. The UI allows switching between Dark and Light themes, refreshing the list of missions and signing out.

Clicking a project will display routes qualified for MAVLink drones, that is, routes with the MAVLink vehicle profile assigned.

The filter in the top right corner allows selecting routes for a specific drone.

The "eye" symbol across the route name visualises it, and the save symbol allows saving the route locally.
