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

    Start your own thread and post both your waypoint mission and your flight log. Without those, we can only guess what happened.

    Anomalies during a waypoint mission

    He has already inquired about this in the Litchi forum. His Mini 5 Pro momentarily stops several times during the flight. The flight log includes 29 "Home point updated" messages and numerous "Downlink Restored" messages despite the fact that he did not update his home point and was less than...

    Hello folks, new guy here from Los Angeles.

    Lucky you! Welcome to the forum.

    Litchi Hub to DJI RC2 Mini 5 Pro Waypoint Issue

    This is normal. It occurs when a straight-line mission is loaded into DJI Fly. DJI Fly can only create a curved turn mission. A straight-line mission can be externally created, loaded, and executed with DJI Fly. It just looks wonky as you have found. It will execute properly.

    Using POI on Waypoint Missions

    That would be the altitude of the POI with respect to your take-off location. It is used to calculate the gimbal pitch angle so that the POI is centered vertically in the view of the camera You are expected to estimate the altitude of the POI with respect to your take-off location.

    Dat to KML software

    I don't want to discourage you from writing the software you proposed. There may be some who, for whatever reason, do not have easy access to their log files. Your solution might be what they need.

    Mavic 3 Waypoints to Litchi Converter

    By this can I assume you are referring to the new Litchi Mission Hub web application? DJI's use of the KMZ file extension for their waypoint WPML data was unfortunate. It has created a lot of confusion. The KMZ file import that will be supported in the new Litchi Mission Hub is a Google Earth...

    Dat to KML software

    While this is an interesting and worthwhile pursuit, the ability to do this already exists in one of my converters. The GPS coordinates, height, yaw, and gimbal pitch angle are also found in the flight log along with either a 0 (zero) or 1 (one) in the "isPhoto" column of the data. Using the...

    Transfer waypoint mission from tablet to DJI RC

    It does. Litchi's new Mission Hub can be used to design a waypoint mission for any DJI drone that has either native waypoints or VSC waypoints via the Litchi or Litchi Pilot apps. Also, it does work with iOS devices. I use an Apple Mini v5 tablet. For drones that are directly supported by a...

    New Maven / Litchi Waypoint Mission Converters

    Litchi is working on "3D Reconstruction" in the new Mission Hub which may help with your requirements. I have upped the maximum file site in the "Maven to Litchi" converter to 110KB. Not all DJI controllers will be able to handle a 770-waypoint mission with waypoint actions. I know of some...

    New Maven / Litchi Waypoint Mission Converters

    For which converter? I've increased the maximum file size to 50KB for both the "Litchi to Maven" and "Maven to Litchi" converters. The WPML language does support distance/time intervals but like you have found, DJI's implementation in DJI Fly does not appear to support them.

    Automating a “8-directions at each altitude” waypoint photo mission (desktop planner or workaround?)

    I have something that may help you achieve what you need. See my "Cardinal Directions Photo Mission Planner" at: https://www.litchiutilities.com/ Even though my utilities are designed to work with Litchi, you do not need Litchi to use them. This tool will help you create a single layer of...

    Telnet from Android phone to Mavic Mini remote controller over USB?

    "Telnet"? I very much doubt that an Android phone has a telnet client (unless you install one) or that a DJI remote has a telnet server. Exactly what are you trying to do?

    Automated missions for a utility company

    Since I do not have direct experience with the enterprise drones I cannot provide an authoritative answer. However, to the best of my knowledge, the enterprise drones are only supported with their corresponding enterprise controllers and are not supported by the DJI consumer drone controllers...

    Automated missions for a utility company

    Yes, they are different apps. The Litchi app that you already have is based on DJI MSDKv4 which supports the older drones including the Mavic 2. The newer Litchi Pilot app (Android only) is based on DJI MSDKv5 which supports the newer drones including the Mavic 3E. Yes, the Litchi PIlot app...
