I'm late to this discussion, but this video shows that Pix4d mapping software can adjust the overlapping % when it maps the flight (at 2 min 18 sec of video. Even if you don't use this software to fly the mission, you can use it as a planning tool to get an idea of how many photos you will...

I'm pondering the pros/cons about using it as my primary phone!!!! hahaha. I also have Tmobile, and that battery is a big factor. Not sure if it will fit in my pocket though. :) I assume no bloatware so that is a plus.

Never heard of this Tripltek tablet. Very cool! I was checking out their website. Couldn't find the answers I was looking for so thought I'd just ask here regarding their tablets, specifically the Tripletek8: Does the tablet have a headphone jack? What kind of charge cable/connection does it...

Thank you!

Can someone confirm that the DJI FPV goggles (the goggles that come with the FPV drone package) are indeed different from the RE goggles? I was hoping to be able to connect the FPV goggles to my Mavic Pro.

The more I think about this, the more I see a big danger of taking off from a moving ship. If the ship is moving at 30 km/hr, the Mavic (on the deck) will also be traveling at 30 km/hr. If the pilot takes off just vertically, then the GPS in the Mavic will attempt to keep the Mavic in the same...

Yes. We normally manually enter a Litchi mission waypoint by waypoint, then save it, and fly it, and fly it again in the future as many times we want. I'm looking for a way for instead of "manually" entering the waypoints, have some routine that will automatically enter those waypoints into...

Oh. I didn't know litchi had a 99 point max. That might be an issue. Thanks for the input.

Lets say I've manually flown around an area using normal DJIGo4. Is there a way that I can program the drone to automatically refly that exact same path at a later date? Hoping there is a built in magic feature to do this. :) But if there is no magic feature, I know that I can go back into...

Hi Ray, Are you saying that in order to update the battery firmware, each battery will need to be plugged into the drone one by one, and have the software look for firmware updates? Could this be why it seems like when someone updates the firmware, then the next flight (different battery), it...

I've been trying to test this one. I tried to refly a long mission after one mission was completed. The battery was around 60% after the first flight. I thought it could make it for another round, but when I tried to upload the mission, I got an error message and I couldn't start it. I'm...

The drone will continue on its mission when signal is lost.

I was not aware of this feature. Good to know. So if the mavic is flying sideways along its mission (strafing), do you still move the right stick forward/back to speed up/slow down? Or do you move the sticks side to side?

I might be a little concerned about high winds removing it in the air. The lip on the front seems substantial to hold the cover on from a head wind, but the sides don't seem to have a significant lip going down the sides of the Mavic. Hard to tell from the photos. If a side wind (or a tail...
