Just updated the Litchi app on my Nexus 6XT, I'm now a happy bunny, and can do my Litchi missions with my Mavic.
Doesn't the dji go app do all of what this app can do?? what's the difference?

For waypoint missions on LitchI you do not have to fly route first and record the points like the DJI Go app. You can also use a computer to make waypoint mission flights and the run them on the drone
I bought it today for 13 bucks on the App Store, heard it was less dumbed down than DJI app. Have high hopes for when I test it, but I'm still Mavic-less
Waypoint missions and a few bells and whistles, personal preferencesDoesn't the dji go app do alld yth of what this app can do?? what's the difference?

Alex, do you know of a youtube video that does the best job of teaching how to use both the PC and smartphone software?Yes, yes, and yes.. Put plenty of waypoints in.
Yes, and yes. Every waypoint has an orientation and a height. If you put curves in, then it will not pause at each waypoint, but smoothly change the orientation as it goes towards the next waypoint. You can put POIs in, but the gimbal angle is disabled if you use curved waypoints.
Speed is also programmable over the mission.
Get the Mission hub on your PC, and play with it, it's a very powerful tool, planning missions is great fun. Start small with three or four waypoints at a reasonable distance and a reasonable height (measured from the home point, NOTE WELL if you have hills/trees/buildings on your route). The planner prompts you with ground elevations when you set the waypoints
Read and understand what it's all about and don't get too ambitious early on. You can use Litchi to plan missions when you're away from home too, You can cache the missions for when you don't have wi-fi or phone reception on site.
I have a litchi mission I'm using to film a seasonal time-lapse over the local woods over the next 8 months (4 months done), as it reliably repeats the mission over and over again.
Enjoy!
