    300 Flights

    Thank you Logger. Now I understand why previously, before Litchi, I was able to view recordings on both the SD card and from the phone! Any idea, when Litchi will also provide the same function or not? It's just easier to view a confirmation (albeit lower res) on the phone than checking on the...

    300 Flights

    @Logger : Wow. Very impressive indeed. You are now a real PRO! btw, I want to know how to record my videos to BOTH SD and my S7 Edge phone running Litchi. I seem to only get the recording to the SD card. Please let me know where to set recordings to both. Thank you, Chris

    How to fly Mavic Pro BACKWARDS using Waypoints in LITCHI?

    Hi Logger: Thank you so much! I tried to set negative speeds on the waypoints and it would just kick back to the default non negative values! Now, I can see the Mission settings does allow me to use negative values. I will try to find time to try it out tomorrow but it will be raining in Los...

    How to fly Mavic Pro BACKWARDS using Waypoints in LITCHI?

    I'm trying to map out my down hill path from Google Earth and it gives me pretty precise height elevation which I export to a .eml file which is imported into the flyitchi.com/hub so I can just pull it from the Litchi app on my phone attached to the controller. I've done all that and now, I will...

    How to fly Mavic Pro BACKWARDS using Waypoints in LITCHI?

    You need to watch it in more details. This guy made a simple contraption which he used to physically throttle the controller. The Mavic drone does NOT automatically follow you downhill and it will stay where you started the tracking. Hope you understand what he did.

    How to fly Mavic Pro BACKWARDS using Waypoints in LITCHI?

    Hi fschilder: Thank you, I have tried but it won't allow me to set to a negative value, revert back to original non negative value. At least on the Litchi Android App. Chris

    How to fly Mavic Pro BACKWARDS using Waypoints in LITCHI?

    Hi Logger: Thank you for your inputs. I will have to manually chart out the headings or create virtual POI to enable the drone to track me. Yes, I think there will be several attempts to get it right over the course of a reasonable downhill run. Thanks again. Chris

    Active track does not work downhill. The drone will maintain it's original height.

    How to fly Mavic Pro BACKWARDS using Waypoints in LITCHI?

    Oh yes. I have seen this one and many many others too. I've even flown the drone on numerous way points missions but trying to do this flying backwards from mountain tops is really challenging to say the least. None of the modes on any drones work well for this scenario. If you found a way to do...

    How to fly Mavic Pro BACKWARDS using Waypoints in LITCHI?

    Hi Halley: Um, I guess you don't have Litchi or never used it? It's similar to DJI GO but more intuitive. That said, there are setting for altitude, speed, (positive angle directions), POI etc but no way to specify flying backwards. My negative altitude values takes care of the downhill terrain...

    How to fly Mavic Pro BACKWARDS using Waypoints in LITCHI?

    Hello drone people: I have a need to video record myself snowboarding down a mountain. Basically, I went into Google Earth and created a Waypoint Path with associated waypoints I saved to http://flylitchi.com/hub which I later imported in the Litchi App. on my Android (Note 7). Everything...
