Right click anywhere on the map, and it's an option in the pop-up. It will appear where you clicked, but you can move it on the map or "fly" around in the Google Earth window. In the window, you can also click the "..." in the menu and that will bring up a properties window where you can use sliders to adjust the altitude, heading, and gimbal pitch. Click the "+" to create a destination or a waypoint or marker on the nearest path.
Hi egoldy,
If you look at the bottom edge of the yellow area around the takeoff point, there's a gray circle with a number in it -- I think it's 20 by default if you're using imperial units, meaning the allowed takeoff circle is 20 feet. But you can click and drag that to a bigger area. If it's a location-restricted takeoff point, the mission will refuse to start if you're outside that circle.
I tried to fly a mission this morning in which I had enlarged the takeoff circle, and it said something like I was 7.941858 miles outside the zone! Rather than try to figure out what went wrong, I just went into the web app and set it to unrestricted, reloaded, and it flew fine. I sort of understand the purpose of it, but it is a PITA.
I realize that. I was wondering if there was a program or app that provides both functions.
