Trainer-led UgCS Area Scan & TTF Missions is SPH Engineering's live course for UgCS and Integrated Systems users who already know UgCS basics. It covers Area Scan and TTF missions with SkyHub. HobiTech coordinates enrolment in India.
Training outline
- Planning AreaScan missions using DSM (elevation data)
- Installing/configuring SkyHub and altimeter on the DJI drone
- Working with Custom Payload Monitor to control TTF/Grasshopper flight modes
- Connection to the DJI drone using UgCS for the DJI app
- Simulation of AreaScan mission using the M600 Pro drone (flight simulation mode, no altimeter)
- Simulation of AreaScan mission using TTF mode (enabling, starting, interrupting)
- Fail-safe actions in TTF mode
- Planning/simulation of AreaScan/TTF mission where AreaScan is far from take-off position
- Simulation of a flight with a battery change
- Safety considerations in TTF mode
- Practical exercises — AreaScan with/without TTF, battery change mid-route, altitude limit handling, pausing/resuming TTF, Grasshopper missions
How is the trainer-led Area Scan & TTF course run?
The course combines a self-paced online part with a live session with an SPH Engineering trainer. The live session can be held at SPH Engineering's office or by video conference over Zoom. It follows the 11-point outline above, from planning AreaScan missions with DSM elevation data to fail-safe actions, battery changes and Grasshopper missions in True Terrain Following (TTF) mode.

What do you need before the training?
SPH Engineering asks that trainees have completed UgCS Basics training, or have the same knowledge and experience. Before the session, each trainee should fly an automated test flight using an Area Scan or Photogrammetry route. The trainer reviews that flight's telemetry at the start of the training.
For real TTF operations you need a DJI drone fitted with SkyHub and an altimeter. HobiTech supplies the parts in India:
- SkyHub on-board computer hardware
- SkyHub software package for True Terrain Following
- UgCS EXPERT for mission planning with LiDAR and geophysical sensors
Read SPH Engineering's Area Scan and True Terrain Following course page and its SkyHub page for more detail.
