On ground station pro, you can choose a shooting angle- perpendicular to course or course aligned.
I do not see where you can do this on Explore app or Map Pilot Pro.
Example- I want the drone facing north with a 75-degree camera angle and flying left to right or east to west, This would be best for solar mapping where say the panels are in a line of east to west and tilted to the south.

So any ideas on how we could have the drone face a certain direction we want during a mission. Or best to hit up Autel to see if they could add this feature. Unless I am missing it somewhere...

Only in waypoint mission plan by changing heading to custom and then manually change settings for gimbal, action [distance or time laps], and heading for each waypoints (most of the times, sometimes when you set everything on first start waypoint it copies the settings to next created waypoints).

Thank you, one workaround, greatly appreciated!
