    Don't crash your Mavic 3 with Waypoints missions

    Thanks Gadgetguy, I'll not hold my breath, but hope springs eternal..

    Don't crash your Mavic 3 with Waypoints missions

    Yes, I know, I'm not suggesting Litchi will ever be available for the Mini 3, I'm referring to DJI Fly waypoints, I'm giving the fact that Litchi is compatible across multiple drones as an example as to why DJI Fly waypoints could possibly be used across multiple drones without modification...

    Don't crash your Mavic 3 with Waypoints missions

    I'd imagine that to be the case, although on the Go4 models, I believe that Litchi missions can be flown by (for example) the Phantom 3 Pro, the Mavic Pro and Mavic 2 (provided no settings exceed the lesser drones capabilities) and virtual stick missions can be flown by (for example) the Air 2...

    Don't crash your Mavic 3 with Waypoints missions

    Just as a by-the-by, I wonder if this means that when(?) the mini 3 pro gets waypoints, when you have both a M3 and a Mini 3 that are used with the one RC that the waypoints could be run by either drone using the RC

    Don't crash your Mavic 3 with Waypoints missions

    Apologies, you are absolutely correct, it just seemed counter-intuitive to go into camera view with the camera switched off, so I didn't even try.. Thanks for the clarification.

    Don't crash your Mavic 3 with Waypoints missions

    I've found that they only need to be linked if both have their location (ie Wi-Fi on on the controller and GPS on the M3) Update, it's possible to create new missions and waypoints without switching the M3 back on, just use the touchscreen to create waypoints , C1 does not work (as you'd expect...

    Don't crash your Mavic 3 with Waypoints missions

    A quick update.. I have to switch the M3 on, then create at least one waypoint, then I can save and continue to edit with it switched off. I have to repeat it for every new waypoint mission, I can't create a mission without both the RC and the M3 switched on and linked. I suspect this may be...

    Thanks for the clue. I've discovered I do not need the M3 airborne, or even:rolleyes:🤯 🤦‍♂️switched on, just need to have the Wi-Fi on on the RC. That'll teach me patience whilst it gets it's bearings..

    I also found that if you take off, set a random waypoint, then land, you can then edit any mission with the M3 on the ground?!

    Waypoints how to Back-Up Export & Import

    Pardon me, I'm not explaining myself very well.. Litchi allows you to plan a mission using both altitude above home point and altitude above the waypoint (AGL) itself, whereas the DJI waypoint planner only has altitude above home point, which can be awkward planning waypoints in hilly country...

    Waypoints how to Back-Up Export & Import

    Yes, and there are still no .kmz files or waypoint folder.. Searched via PC and using the touchscreen.

    Waypoints how to Back-Up Export & Import

    Ah, I think I've confused the RC Pro controller with the regular RC controller (the one (with the screen) I've got), kmz files are easy to find in the RC-N1 controllers, but search does not turn anything up on this controller, with hidden file tickbox ticked and 4 waypoint missions saved. I...
