Stop for Mapping Images?

Hi. I'm planning a mapping mission in Map Pilot Pro. I see the option to set the drone to stop for taking each image. I can easily see where that would increase image clarity, but isn't stopping the drone 360 times during a flight rough on the airframe? Does it make that big of a difference? Thanks!

Thanks,

Terry

Yep. It takes a lot longer to cover an area. So it is really just a tradeoff: smear vs speed. 

STI (Stop to Image) is really most useful when you are looking to get really small GSD that can afford to be smeared. The feature was introduced for users that are using it to read handwritten markings on freshly poured warehouse foundations.
