Question 1

How do I generate flightlogs with an EdgeTX Remote Controller?

Accepted Answer

GPS telemetry files are generated using Lua scripts on your EdgeTX transmitter. Download flylog.lua and tellog.lua from the FlyLog EdgeTX repository, copy them to SCRIPTS/FUNCTIONS on your transmitter's SD card, and configure them as Special Functions in your model settings. FlyLog logs basic flight info (arm/disarm, GPS coordinates, duration) while TeleLog records detailed telemetry at ~3.5 times per second.

Question 2

How do I import flight logs from EdgeTX into UAV Desk?

Accepted Answer

Login to UAV Desk, navigate to Imports / Exports section, select the EdgeTX Importer, then select the LOGs folder from your EdgeTX transmitter and upload it. The system will automatically detect new flights, skip duplicates, and also import any available GPS telemetry logs.

Question 3

Can I export all my UAV Desk data?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Go to the Imports / Exports section, scroll to the Export section, and click 'Export All Data'. A ZIP file will download containing all UAVs, flight logs with telemetry, maintenance logs, and configuration files.

Question 4

Can I import data from my old UAV Manager account?

Accepted Answer

Yes! UAV Desk is compatible with the older UAV Manager system. Export your data from the old system as a ZIP file, then go to Imports / Exports in UAV Desk and select your ZIP file. The system automatically detects duplicates and maps data correctly.

Question 5

How is my storage usage calculated?

Accepted Answer

Storage includes flight logs and associated telemetry data, GPS coordinate history, UAV configuration files, maintenance log attachments, and any uploaded media files. You can view a detailed storage breakdown on your dashboard.

Question 6

What happens if I exceed my storage limit?

Accepted Answer

Once you reach your storage limit, you won't be able to upload new files or import new telemetry data. Your existing data remains fully accessible. To continue, you can either upgrade your plan or delete some existing data.

Question 7

Can I change my subscription plan?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You can upgrade or downgrade your plan at any time. Upgrading takes effect immediately. For downgrades, ensure your current storage usage doesn't exceed the new plan's limit. Visit the Pricing page or User Settings to change your plan.

Question 8

What happens if I cancel my subscription?

Accepted Answer

If you cancel, your data is retained for 90 days. You can reactivate during this period to keep all your data. After 90 days, all data is permanently deleted. We recommend exporting your data before cancellation.

Question 9

What happens if duplicate data is detected during import?

Accepted Answer

UAV Desk has intelligent duplicate detection that prevents importing the same data twice. Duplicates are matched by serial numbers and drone names for UAVs, by date/time/location for flight logs, and by event details and timestamps for maintenance records. Duplicate entries are automatically skipped with no data loss.
