I keep getting this warning for a Litchi waypoint mission. Any clues?

I get that warning if the max distance exceeds 3000ft

I've certainly seen and ignored that warning many many times and never worried about it, although it does remind me to check that the home point is set before starting. Since it's not mentioned in the documentation Help - Litchi you might want to write to the developer and recommend they document it. They are usually very responsive: Google Groups
 
Yeah I think it is related to the distance you have set in General settings -> Map Safe Area Radius and is displayed as a red range ring on the map. It is advisory for information only.

Yea, but I'm not using radius ring. No limits. Still get that.
 
The radius ring (default 500m) is just for eyeballs.

There is also a "max distance" setting to help keep you honest. Be sure to adjust that before any long-distance challenge flights.

Add another waypoint between the two that are very far apart and it should go away. I forget what the max distance is between waypoints but there is one.
