2D Variant here.

In this video, we are going to show you how to create a preset for a specific focal length, using the Preset Menu of the MECHA C2 controller.

Power MECHA on by pressing and holding the power button for about 3 seconds. 

In the Preset Menu, use the arrow buttons to navigate to an empty option.

Press the Plus button to enter edit mode and create a preset in the selected option. 

If the flashing value is not millimeter, press the up arrow button several times, until millimeter (mm) is displayed.

Using the minus or plus button, adjust the value as needed. 

You can change other settings in the preset, if needed. 

Use the down or up arrow button to display the next set of settings. 

Finally, confirm with the center button. 

Now you can launch the preset as usual, by pressing the center button and specifying the direction of rotation (with the right or left arrow button), if not already specified in your preset. 

Then wait for MECHA to perform the preset. 

Here is how the stitched panorama should look like in the panorama editor. 

And this is the MAP featuring the overlap between images.
