It says <<CONECTING>> for a few seconds then goes off, unless it is pluged into a usb power supply, even though it says it is charged 100%. There may be a problem with the drone as well since I can't do an...

    Anyone using the Litchi app with no issues?

    I use Litchi almost exclusively, but I am flying a way-point files repeatedly and find it convenient for building the way-point files in mission hub.

    altitude vs altitude

    can anyone explain to me what the altitude number recorded in image files exif data really means. e.g. I am flying at 136 feet AGL according to the app but get a value of 337 feet from the image exif data.

    Pix4 minimum altitude

    We are trying to take high resolution images (3mm/pixel) for agriculture flying over a corn field. the corn is no more than 11ft high at maturity. the Litchi app allows flying as low as we need but I don't know about Pix4 or the Drone Deploy app you mentioned.

    Mavic Air with Seek Thermal (Previously: Can I fix the gimbal into one position?)

    Remember that the MVP needs to rotate to direct the thrust from the propellers for hovering. So if you find a way to lock the camera with respect to the MVP it will not be fixed with respect to the earth.

    Acer ICONIA ONE 7

    Has anyone tried to run a waypoint file with litchi on a Acer ICONIA ONE 7. No matter what I have tried I have not been able to fly one on my Samsung Galaxy S6 active.

    Which Android phones are stable

    I can't get litchi to work with my galaxy S6 active. I downgraded litchi to Version 3.10.10 as litchi suggested but now I get DISCONNECTED error and the mission will not execute. But I can see the image on my phone if I expand the +. Any thoughts?
