How does one change Yaw while flying or when one gets to a waypoint. I want to be able to point my hexcopter at the center of a circle while I fly around it. I tried using "Yaw Ang" in the Waypoint within Flight Planner, but nothing happened. My hex just changes it's yaw to the direction of flight to the next waypoint. I then tried using Loiter_Time and setting the "Yaw Per" and that also did nothing. Any ideas how this can be done?
Thanks,
Richard

Seems like I keep solving my own problems. LOL. Anyway thought I would share my solution just in case someone else might have the same problem.
What I ended up using was CONDITION_YAW and entered degrees under the Deg column.
So my flight plan looks like this.
1. DO_CHANGE_SPEED - speed m/s = 1 (I want to slow done my flight, I'm in no hurry)
2. CONDITION_YAW - deg = 180 (I want to face south)
3. WAYPOINT - Delay = 10 (Move to first way point and wait 10 seconds)
4. CONITION_YAW - deg = 270 (I want to face west)
5. WAYPOINT - Delay = 10 (Move to second way point and wait 10 seconds)
6. CONDITION_YAW - deg = 0 (I want to face north)
7. WAYPOINT - Delay = 10 (Move to first way point and wait 10 seconds)
8. CONITION_YAW - deg = 90 (I want to face east)
9. WAYPOINT - Delay = 10 (Move to second way point and wait 10 seconds)
10. RETURN_TO_LAUNCH (This does not work right, the copter tries to land at it's current way point, I believe Code 2.8 fixes this) I normal take back manual control at this point.
Hope this help,
Richard
