I do not own a DJI Fly drone with waypoints so keep that in mind when reading my answer... From what others have written, I have concluded that you cannot pre-program a DJI Fly waypoint mission with negative height values using DJI Fly. The height slider on the screen will only go down to...

You can create a waypoint mission in the DJI Fly app using the map and placing waypoints and POIs.

You do not have to fly to create a mission. You can create a mission by placing waypoints and POIs on a map, then save the mission so that it can be flown later. Yes, if you are not in the USA, your missions will sync with the "cloud" so that they are available on other devices running DJI Fly...

If you are asking if a Litchi waypoint mission can be converted and loaded into DJI Fly, the answer is "yes". The conversion software and instructions are available on this site: https://www.litchiutilities.com/

Welcome to the forum.

You have to manually copy the mission KMZ file from one DJI Fly installation to another. The following instructions are for copying a KMZ file TO a DJI Fly installation. From these instructions you should be able to figure out how to export a KMZ file FROM a DJI installation...

That option is not available in the USA because it would require uploading data to DjI servers. You will have to do the transfer manually.

A recent update to the DJI Fly app now syncs waypoint missions to the cloud so that they can be shared between devices. However, that function is not available in the USA due to the fact that your missions would sync to DJI's cloud. There is a manual way for missions to be exported and...

This is because GPS altitude is based on an ellipsoidal approximation of the earth's surface. As you have found it can differ 100s of meters from actual altitude and is not useful for the altitudes typically flown with drones.

I have tried setting my key to "unrestricted" so that it can use any API. No change. I've tried looking at the developer console (gear icon). I don't see any errors. Is there something specific to look at? I also tried resetting VLM (ctrl-click). No change. Whether "Altitudes" or "Heading...

I receive notifications for posts to this thread. Check the top of the page and see if it says "Watch" or "Unwatch". Mine says "Unwatch" which means I am watching (receiving updates for this thread). Google has changed their pricing model. I use a number of their services. They used to give...

I can see you changed the sensor size to be the active area of the sensor as @Theta has provided. However, your calculated horizontal and vertical FOV differ from my calculations. I describe how to calculate them here: https://www.litchiutilities.com/docs/fov.php The point I was trying to...
