    Virtual Litchi Mission

    I think that sums up exactly what I was trying to say - I think. The gimbal angle is not transmitted - with the mission.. The mission is in both places - ipad and drone, and the gimbal part gets transmitted during the mission. Yes/No?

    Virtual Litchi Mission

    I know - but it won't tell me what it will do when it goes completely out of range, at least, not the full story; thats the problem. Or from what I gather, thats the problem that the API has (or hasn't been written into it yet). Unfortunately I don't have a lot of places I can test this that...

    Virtual Litchi Mission

    You're probably right - it was brought up on this thread and I happened to be poking around as it was, but yeah, should probably go there. I don't often fly outside of radio range (makes me a tad nervous for obvious reasons), let alone VLOS, so the use case is not exactly huge, but you raise a...

    Virtual Litchi Mission

    Let me rephrase - at the waypoints, I'm using the 'actions' to execute commands (take picture, record, etc.). Yes - I know how to set interpolate and mostly know what it can do, but this isn't the point. Forget what I'm trying to do for the moment, create a mission with waypoints and POI's...

    Virtual Litchi Mission

    Just to add to that - I'm telling it to do *things* as 'actions' at the waypoints.

    Virtual Litchi Mission

    Yeah - I get that it won't take any commands after it goes out of range, that wasn't a question in and of itself.. Somewhere around post 613 I think, I guess I got the impression that in order for the gimbal to Focus POI, those commands aren't stored in the mission sent to the drone because of...

    Virtual Litchi Mission

    Sorry, not FPV flight - that one is as expected. Some earlier posts indicated that if you have the mission hitting waypoints and pointing at some POI, and its out of range, then the aircraft will orient to point at the POI, but not do anything with the gimbal - which is consistent with what...

    Virtual Litchi Mission

    Sorry to go back to something said earlier - if the drone is out of RC range (correct me if I'm understanding this wrong), it can NOT change the gimbal direction/pitch as part of your mission? I.E. why Focus POI or Interpolate don't work when out of range(?) Does this apply to the actions as...

    Mavic 2 Pro + Litchi and wrong Date Created

    Quick update (forgot) - I got a reply from Litchi (02JAN19) that they are aware of the issue and are waiting on a "DJI SDK fix". One thing I haven't tried - maybe someone already mentioned it and I missed/forgot - is this a issue specific to Android? I know its storing on the sd card, but I'm...

    Mavic 2 Pro + Litchi and wrong Date Created

    FWIW I'm a bit new here, but I came across this head scratcher a couple of days ago and just did a few tests - I formatted the SD card and the internal storage, then took a single picture with Litchi and one with DJI Go and Litchi's date was 19DEC2018 (It's currently 23DEC2018), so whatever is...

    Mavic Air Bags... what are you using to carry your drone?

    Thats me in a nutshell... and they're just expensive enough to make it difficult to 'get rid of' - less so if I know its going to a good home, but still.. there's always that.. "but maaaaaybe..." I picked up a Mavic 2 Pro and I briefly used a Hazard 4 Photo-Recon bag that I had from my...
