Hi Haiyang,

I understand that you require to adjust the starting and end points for your UAV trajectory without using MAVLink.

An approach you can consider is to remove the existing starting and end points from the trajectory using 'removeItem' function of the UAV Toolbox and use 'addTakeoff' and 'addLand' functions to add your custom takeoff and landing locations.

You can also refer to this MATLAB Answer, where 'setValue' function has been used to adjust the values of the latitude and logitudes of the initial position of the trajectory: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/1805840-how-can-i-change-the-map-and-start-location-in-the-uav-package-delivery-example

You can refer to the following MathWorks documentations to know more about these functions:

'removeItem': https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2022b/uav/ref/uavmission.removeitem.html

'addLand': https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2022b/uav/ref/uavmission.addland.html

'addTakeoff': https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2022b/uav/ref/uavmission.addtakeoff.html

Hope this helps! Thanks.
