Outline the area on your phone. The drone flies the grid on its own, the map builds on the phone, and it drops into every teammate's ATAK. No stick time, no laptop, no one pulled off the line.

A dedicated drone operator is a luxury a small team can't afford. On a squad of four, one person on the sticks is a quarter of your people.
TakVector flies the mission for you. Draw the area, hit Go, and the drone runs the grid on its own while the pilot keeps it in sight and stays on task. The map lands in ATAK for every member as soon as the drone is down.
All the eyes of a drone operator. None of the headcount.
Tap the corners. The app works out height, overlap, photos and batteries. The shape you draw is the mission.
The drone flies the grid by itself. Pause or Return home is one tap. You keep eyes on it; your hands stay free.
The map is stitched on the phone, no signal needed, and pushed to every connected ATAK. Teammates don't need TakVector.
Real beta screens. The flight shown is simulated while flight testing finishes.
Draw in the TakVector app, or send a shape to the "Vector" contact straight from ATAK. Both drive the same drone.
Flies a mapping grid over the area and builds a stitched map on your phone, then pushes it to ATAK.
Flies the outline of an area, inside or outside the line, with the camera looking down, ahead, in or out.
Scouts along a trail or road, following the bends, out to a distance limit, with an optional return the same way.
"Go look at that thing over there." A close photo and a wide photo, straight down, attached to the point.
Circles a point of interest and attaches the photos to the marker in ATAK.
Drop rally points and markers that every teammate sees, then task the drone on any of them.
