Plan Locations on AV DSS 

After registering your Quantix, start by 

planning your locations online in AV DSS. 

Before you use your Quantix system:

• 

 

and crop type

•  Data analytics are generated  

for each location

Planning a  Mission

There are many options on where to place 

your Quantix for launch. This location will 

be considered ‘Home.’ 

In general you want to choose 

a location that is:

•  Flat and even ground
•  Clear of all obstacles  

within a 50 ft. radius

Not Great

Better

Choose the Best Launch Location

A Return Home Path Could:

•  Fly over adjacent areas

•  Fly into an unsafe area

•  Fly into an undesirable zone

This launch location results in long 

Return Home paths outside the area.

Any Return Home Path Would:

•  Fly over intended areas

•  Fly in a safe area

• 

return paths over more of the area. 

Centrally-Located All Return Home Paths:

•  Have best line-of-sight

•  Fly directly over intended areas

•  Fly in a safe area 

This ideal launch location is also centrally 

located to minimize the time to execute a 

Return Home.
