# Inspired Flight
## Getting Started
To ensure the gimbal steering for the 6X Series Sensors will work for Inspired Flight aircraft two things need to be checked:
* [ ] Verify the sensor firmware is v3.13.1 or higher
* [ ] Verify Inspired Flight compatibility settings have been applied to the aircraft.

IGC v1.4 and greater will display the gimbal angle indicator.

## Manual Gimbal Control
To manually control the gimbal use the rocker wheel on the left hand side of the hand controller.
Pushing the wheel to the right will point the gimbal downwards (NADIR).
Pushing the wheel to the left will point the gimbal forward.

## Automated Gimbal Control
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
### Navigate to the Plan Screen
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Select Mission Type
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Select Waypoint From the Left Hand Menu
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Place a Waypoint
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Expand Camera Dropdown Menu
In the waypoint mission item on the right hand side of the screen select the camera drop down menu.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Check the Gimbal Box and Set Gimbal Angle
Check the gimbal options box, then enter your desired gimbal pitch angle
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Finish Planning Mission
Plan the rest of your mission as normal. The gimbal will change the pitch angle of the sensor at the waypoint and remain at that pitch angle throughout the rest of the mission.
To add additional gimbal pitch changes use the same method between survey mission items, or plan a waypoint mission and add the gimbal change commands as desired.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Upload
Upload the mission to the aircraft.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://support.senterasensors.com/home/65r-sensor-user-guide/65r-sensor/operation/gimbal-steering/inspired-flight.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
