8. Flight Logs
8.1 View Logs
In this feature users can see the logs of a particular flight in the graph form and can also see the data related to it. Users can see the details of the flight like plan name, project name, start time, end time, date, flight id, duration, average altitude, and average speed. Also, the user can see the altitude, speed, battery, and logs related to the flight.
In view details, the user can see the roll, pitch, yaw, and other information related to the flight.
Pitch, Roll, and Yaw are also known as axes of rotation, and these are going to control the movement and direction of the drone in the air during your flight.
Pitch is the rotation of a vehicle locked between the lateral or transverse axis, commonly known as the side-to-side axis (in an airplane, wingtip to wingtip). If the pitch is positive, the front end will rise and the back end will fall. It is used to assist with ascent and descent.
Roll, also known as the longitudinal axis, is the rotation of a vehicle from front to back (nose to tail). When performing a turn, the vehicle "banks" left or right to move to one side or the other. A positive roll angle raises the left-wing while lowering the right.
YAW is the rotation around the vertical axis and lies perpendicular to the wings of an aircraft and in the centerline. The yaw motion is a side-to-side nose movement of the aircraft as shown below from its center of gravity. Positive yaw would move the nose to the right. Yaw changes the direction the aircraft is pointing and can be prevented by the use of the rudder.

Flight Log
​
The user will get the graphical and statistical data related to the completed flight in the form of details such as time, altitude, speed, battery status, etc. The flight logs indicate the changes in the device's pitch, roll, yaw, and altitude values. The user will study the graphs and analyze the behavior of the device. The data presented in the graph will be useful for analyzing the completed flight. The graphs also show glitches in GPS systems, changes in the speed of the vehicle, etc., if any. The user can use these data to improve the performance of the device. These logs are available after the simulation also, so it becomes very easy to analyze the performance of the device with specific values, and with the respective changes in the parameters, the user may get improved and desirable performance without any damage to the device.
