| 3 | +# Introduction |
| 4 | +FreeTAK UAS (FTUAS) is an Android application that can: |
| 5 | +* control any DJI drone supported by the current DJI SDK |
| 6 | +* Stream the position of the drone to all the connected TAK clients |
| 7 | +* Stream the video Feed to all the connected TAK clients |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +# Requirements |
| 10 | +* FreeTAK UAS app |
| 11 | +* DJI compatible drone |
| 12 | +* FTS v 1.9 (or better): the application will NOT support the legacy TAK server. |
| 13 | +* the FTS REST API service must be activated |
| 14 | +* You have a valid REST Token (created in the FTS UI under System User) |
| 15 | +* FTH Video Service (or compatible RTMP server) if you want to stream live videos |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +# Installation |
| 18 | +Assuming that you have installed and configured your [FTS](https://freetakteam.github.io/FreeTAKServer-User-Docs/Installation/PyPi/Linux/Install.html) and the [video service](https://github.com/FreeTAKTeam/FreeTAKHub/blob/main/README.md), download the APK installation file on your phone / tablet and follow the instructions. |
| 19 | +if the installation is suvcessful you should have a new Icon |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +# Usage |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +## Connection |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +* start your drone |
| 29 | +* start your controller |
| 30 | +* connect the phone with FTUAS to the controller |
| 31 | +* a popup will ask wich application you want to open |
| 32 | +* select FTUAS and configure the following: |
| 33 | + * FTS IP and Port |
| 34 | + * Video Server IP and port |
| 35 | + * the Drone name |
| 36 | + * Now click on UAS [READY] |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +## Interface |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +the FTUAS interface is typical of DJI the following is special: |
| 41 | +* As soon you switch to it the drone will start streaming the camera |
| 42 | +* As soon you switch to it the drone will share his position with the FTS server, that will foward to all the connected clients |
| 43 | +* the "Red Dot" in the middle can be tappped to create a geoObject of type "Unknow" call target and send to all the connected clients |
| 44 | +* the vertical aim of the "Red Dot" can be changed by moving the gimbal |
| 45 | +* in some model, it's also possible to aim the gimbal independent from the position of the drone by dragging the position on screen |
| 46 | +* In the current version, the aim is not perfect so expect some delta |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +## ATAK Interface |
| 49 | +### Map |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +In ATAK the drone shows: |
| 52 | +* a white zone (field of view) |
| 53 | +* a Sensor Point of Interest (SPI) |
| 54 | +* the position and name of the drone |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +### Menu |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +to visualize the video tap the drone's icon and then the video icon |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +### Video Player |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +In alternative open the ATAK video player and search for the name of your drone |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +NOTICE: in the current version, every time a new video endpoint will be created, this must be manually deleted. |
