Abstract
A method is provided for allowing UAV pilots to create a flight path profile and upload the same to a central server, allowing access to other UAV pilots. The method includes the steps of having creating a first flight path profile, uploading the flight path profile to a central server, allowing access of the flight path profile to others, and downloading the first flight path profile to a UAV so that the UAV follows the downloaded first flight profile. The flight path profile includes control of three dimensional motion and orientation of a UAV, control of the view orientation of a camera, as well as other camera settings such as video and still image modes, frame rate, and exposure, altitude and speed and dwell times.
