I've recently noticed that when I switch to waypoints, and I have a satellite view in the map, the map image twists back and forth by about five or ten degrees. Also, I did a waypoint mission this evening and although I had made the curves as smooth and shallow as possible, the view on the...

Thank you everyone for all your good advice. It's a bit puzzling that DJI don't allow Cable Cam on all their drones, as it's one of the most useful features there is.

Does that mean that if you use a drone that doesn't use the Fly app, you can still use Cable Cam? I'm asking because I like this feature so much that I'd consider buying an earlier drone secondhand in order to use it, but I'm not sure which models don't use the Fly app. I've been to DJI's...

Have DJI disabled manual speed control for all its drones? Would it still work on the Mavic 2 Pro or the Air 2?

When I had a Mavic Pro, I used to do a technique with Litchi called 'cable cam' (you can see tutorials for it on Youtube). The idea is that you set up a Waypoints mission, then in Mission Settings you set the cruising speed at zero and the maximum speed at whatever you like. This means that...

Hi Rod No, different tablet and bird. I bought Litchi when I had a Mavic Pro and I was running it with a Google Nexus 7 tablet. I sold it an got a DJI Mini 2. It needed a different DJI app to fly it with, and this new app wouldn't work with my Nexus 7 because it needed a 64 bit OS. That's why I...

Thanks to everyone who has been trying to help me with this. Working on the theory that some sort of adblocker or security setting on an app might be preventing Litchi from communicating with the ground elevation server, last night I did a factory reset on my tablet, removing all apps and all...

Thanks for trying to help, Rod. Just one more piece of information that might help people here: my version of Litchi says it's 'v4.26.6-g'. The weirdest thing is, this happens with both my tablets (both are Samsung Galaxy A7 Lite). There's no doubt that I'm connected to the Internet when I try...

I'm very familiar with Litchi but haven't used it recently. I use a Samsung Galaxy A7 tablet Lite running Android 13 as my mobile device. My aircraft is a DJI Mini 2. I never use the hub. Thanks for taking the time to answer this query.

I'm having a problem with Litchi Waypoints that I can't figure out, and I hope someone here can help. I keep trying to set a waypoint mission on an 'altitude above ground' basis, but Litchi won't let me. I do all the waypoints, use 'select all' then 'edit' and then choose 'altitude above...

I often use prop guards when I have to do close up photography, but I wonder about putting them on all four props, since I'm not likely to back into anything. Do people here know if it would dangerously unbalance the aircraft if I just put them on the front props?

Hi I recently wrote to the company I'd bought my Mini 2 from, saying it was faulty and that I wanted to return it. They replied saying that I should send it to DJI to let them troubleshoot the problem first. I live in the UK but I cannot find a UK address I could send it to. Can anyone help...

I'd like to run my Mini 2 with a tablet rather than a phone, but I don't want to have to mess around with special brackets or adaptors. Are there any suitable tablets that fit the Mini 2 controller without an adapter?

I recently bought a mini 2 and (naively, perhaps) thought that you could use any smartphone for it, and that my Alcatel Joy 1 would be fine. But now I find that you need the Fly app, and it won't work on my phone. I'm pretty miffed, as I only bought that phone to use on a drone (the Autel Evo)...
