    Missing DJI Go Settings and How To Unlock No Fly Zone?

    The FC serial number is on the aircraft too, at least on my Mavic 2 Pro. It's on a sticker on one of the motor arms. I made a note of it on my tablet and PC so I can just cut and paste it into the FlySafe web page. Yes, you must be connected to the aircraft to import the unlock license to the...

    Missing DJI Go Settings and How To Unlock No Fly Zone?

    I've noticed on my SmartController, also Android based, that some settings are unavailable unless the drone is connected. One of those is Unlock Licensing, which is extremely annoying as it's all web based and doesn't actually need the drone for anything. You should be able to pull the unlock...

    How to video.

    For editing, Blackmagic Design has a free version of DaVinci Resolve that does a great job of editing video. I use the paid version of that software as it came with my cinema camera and I love it. Check that out. There are any number of good online training resources for it also. Personally...

    Litchi Action failure

    Just to close the loop... Adding a Stay for 5 seconds after taking a still photo does the trick. If you watch the display closely, you can see when it takes a photo that it spins a little clock icon for about 4-5 seconds. If you try to Start Recording while that icon is on-screen, the action...

    Touring the bog

    Did a longer Litchi flight today and grabbed a few stills while it was making the loop around the bog. This is around Winona Lake near Monkton/Bristol, Vermont. I'm still working on stitching the video clips together.

    Litchi Action failure

    Thanks! I'll give that a try on my next go and see if that helps.

    Litchi Action failure

    No curves in my flight plan, and all the other actions worked as they should have. It just simply will not restart the video recording. Sure, I can do it manually but I'd rather it do it automatically like it's supposed to. It did the same thing to me again today but I was watching for it and...

    Testing Litchi in Vermont on a sunny fall day

    I actually had a straight down shot as the next sequence but Litchi never turned the recording back on. It executed the other actions at that waypoint, such as turning the recording off and snapping a still photo but it just doesn't seem to honor the Start Recording action anywhere but Waypoint...

    Testing Litchi in Vermont on a sunny fall day

    Was out today trying my hand for the first time with Litchi. I was partially successful :-) This is a short video of the first part of the flight. It went swimmingly until here, where Litchi never re-enabled the recording... Did manage to get some stills today also, so I figured that out...

    Litchi Action failure

    I was out today trying my first flight with Litchi. I set up a simple 5 waypoint flight with 2 POIs. All routing was done straight, at least as far as I could tell. There were none of the blue curve arcs visible. I started the mission, the M2P lifted off and went to WP1, where I had an...

    Greetings from Vermont!

    New pilot here - just bought a Mavic 2 Pro for myself. Got around a dozen short flights on it so far, still learning a lot. They've certainly come a long way over the last few years. Good flying all!
