to view the Survey Tool’s advanced configuration options.

Adjust Overlap and Sidelap

Overlap and sidelap are set to 50% and 60%, respectively,
by default. See page 35 for an in-depth discussion of these
parameters.

Adjust StartFrom

During the mission, you will maintain contact with the X8 through
the RC controller and ground station signals. If these signals are
lost during flight, the X8 will respond with the assigned failsafe
behaviors. See page 29. If your mission is likely to experience a
loss of signal, it is best practice to start from the corner of the
mission farthest from the launch point.
