    Where are waypoints stored?

    Yes. Depending on which of my applications you are referring to, I use the same limitations as Litchi. For example, in my "AirData to Litchi" converter, I have to limit heights from -655m to 1640m. Otherwise, Litchi will not be able to import the CSV file. For other utilities such as the...

    Where are waypoints stored?

    You are not the first person to ask this question. I understand that for some people's workflow, off-line (stand-alone) versions might be preferred. So, I have thought about it but my preference is to provide these tools on-line. The on-line version makes it much easier for me to package the...

    Waypoint Mission (IMPOSSIBLE) !!!!! 🇦🇮🦘

    I prefer to have missions that will bring the drone back to me without any manual input from me. Here is how I would adjust your mission: When using DJI Fly, it would look like this (red path): Keep all of the waypoint heights the same around WP3, WP4, WP5, WP6. Then, there will be no...

    CSV files not accepted by Airdata

    One of my utilities will convert a flight log (from AirData) into a Litchi waypoint mission. In order to do that, you must first have your flight logs synced to the AirData web site. Once in AirData, you can download a log file in CSV format from AirData. That CSV file can then be converted...

    Waypoint Mission (IMPOSSIBLE) !!!!! 🇦🇮🦘

    I have analyzed your mission and your flight path. Your mission lies primarily along a very long, straight line. Waypoint 4 creates a sharp turning point where the drone changes direction 180 degrees. Up until waypoint 4 the drone was traveling away from you. After waypoint 4 the drone is...

    Waypoint Mission (IMPOSSIBLE) !!!!! 🇦🇮🦘

    I can see that the drone went from 64ft down to 22ft when you exited waypoint mode. If you would like me to analyze the mission, I would need to see the waypoints. Are you able to access and provide the mission? These instructions will show where it is located...

    Horizon issues

    You may be misunderstanding what FPV mode is. When turned on, even though the drone may remain level, the camera is tilted to simulate a turn in a fixed wing aircraft. What you described in your first post is exactly what FPV mode does.

    Horizon issues

    What you are describing is "FPV Mode". From the manual: Gimbal Operation Modes Two gimbal operation modes are available. Switch between the different operation modes in DJI Fly. Follow Mode: The angle between the gimbal’s orientation and aircraft front remains constant at all times. FPV Mode...

    What video settings do you recommend for recording a construction building using Waypoints?

    While it is not always absolutely necessary, in extreme cases, leaving a clip offset for its entire duration may result in a subsequent clip from filling the frame. For example, if two sequential clips both require a positive X offset, it may leave the last clip slightly off-frame (to the...

    What video settings do you recommend for recording a construction building using Waypoints?

    While video settings are important, there are other considerations for what you are doing that are more important. I've done a number of constructions sites and I am working on two more year-long projects now. Since no two waypoint sequences will line up perfectly in post, blending them...

    Mini 4K waypoints?

    This is news to me! Neither the Mini 4K nor the Mini 2 SE (upon which the 4K is based), have the waypoint flight mode. If this has changed, please share your source of information.

    Fly app and terrain following

    No, it doesn't. Not exactly. I have a detailed description of how Litchi's "Above Ground" works here: https://www.litchiutilities.com/docs/aboveGround.php

    No data KMZ to RC

    If you are doing this on a Windows computer you should simplify this by unchecking the "Hide extensions" option. Doing so will make the above task much easier.
