    Mini Lightning

    Thanks. I lucked out here and was able to fly the mini just after the storm passed and it stopped raining. I think some of lightning bolts hit a cell tower.

    Mini Lightning

    I used the basic mavic mini and its 2720×1530 resolution. Next time I will use my Mavic.

    Mini Lightning

    Lightning sequence I sent up the Mini about 250 feet and had it turned toward the lake at about 10:30 (5-21-22) just after a storm passed and the rain stopped.There are three brief episodes repeated twice at slower speeds. That one streak connecting to the west side of the lake is intense. Marko

    Can litchi and dji go reside in same tablet ok?

    If you are using Litchi be sure to force stop the DJI app. Sorry if this was suggested already.

    Mavic pro and Litchi waypoint issue

    Camera pitch mode is disabled so I can control up and down. Rotation direction is set to manual. No POIs. I think it's a mechanical issue with the camera. Thanks. Mark

    Mavic pro and Litchi waypoint issue

    Here's a recent problem with my MP and Litchi. Whenever I start a waypoint mission in Litchi, the gimbal is unresponsive and I have no pitch control for the camera. The dial on the RC is unresponsive, the video is fixed on the horizon and shaky. I thought this was an issue with the cold, and...

    help with gimbal malfunction in cold weather

    Thanks jpcabral. I think I have narrowed my problem down a bit. It's not the cold, but it seems to be an issue with Litchi and uploading a waypoint mission. I tried this several times today: brought the MP up to 250 feet, hovered there for 30 seconds,moved the MP back and forth a bit, and I...

    help with gimbal malfunction in cold weather

    I recently experienced two events in which the cold seems to be causing my Mavic pro's gimbal to malfunction. In each case I brought the Mavic to about 250 feet and set it off on a Litchi waypoint mission. The camera would not respond to my control and it was locked on the horizon and the...

    How accurate is litchis find my drone?

    That may indicate the last point at which the mavic was connected to your RC. By any chance, were you doing a waypont run? If so you can walk and follow the waypoint route and seek out the highest terrain where it may have clip a tree or something else. If it wasn't a waypoint mission, you...

    Decent android tablet for today 7/10/18

    I use a Huawei M3 tablet and it works well with Litchi and DJI Go. It has about 4 gig of system memory. I cannot use my Samsung Galaxy E anymore. See how much ram the tablet has. 3 gigs might be needed now for running these apps. mark

    Can litchi and dji go reside in same tablet ok?

    If you have Litchi and the Go app on the same device make sure to force stop the one when using the other. Having a tablet with a least 3 gigs of ram may be needed. My Samsung E tablet has 1.5 gigs of ram and after Litchi upgraded I could not use it anymore. I could not even revert to the...

    Rochester, NY - High Falls area.

    This is very nicely done. I enjoyed it a lot. Great flying and video! The close up and ride up the falls is exhilarating. Did you do a manual fly-by of the kodak building or was it a programmed orbit?

    Gimble calabration

    Perhaps the battery did not have enough energy for this. I noticed once that I could not change the camera settings on my Mavic while the battery was low. I put a fully charged battery in and was able to do so.

    Yes, I sadly lost my mavic. Any ideas?

    You might try walking the litchi waypoint path with your phone in hand and see if it is somewhere along the route. Try to stay as close to the waypoint line as you can. When you walk and look left and right. (Don't chew gum while doing this. I trip when I walk and try to chew gum...
