Advice from Litchi users needed

Thanks

The 5D button is customizable within a set of choices. I don't think sensor on/off is one of the choices available.

You could disable the sensors before you take off but I am uncertain if you can after the mission starts. You should fly a waypoint mission like you have no anti-collision sensors. Odds are your Mavic will be pointed one direction and flying another so sensor protection will be iffy at best.

Sorry, one more: the sticks mode is customizable?

The 5-D button is customizable. From the manual:


The graphic is not real clear but it is the small "joystick" next to the right joystick.

The "stick mode" is also customizable and effects the main joysticks and flight characteristics.

went thru every single tab of the settings... i found the 5D button configuration, but did not found the sticks configuration...
(do you keep in mind i asked for these customisations under Litchi?
The picture you posted seems to be from dji go4)

Yep. Sorry about that. Since I haven't used Litchi in a while someone else ought to step in here.

I use Litchi almost 99% of the time because Litchi uses far less phone resources than DJI, and I RARELY have signal or disconnect issues with Litchi.

HOWEVER...a word of warning!! If you are using Litchi "Orbit" mode, and lose signal between your bird and the controller, the bird will NOT "RTH"!! Instead, the bird will continue to orbit until critical battery, and then LAND!!

well, i had my first Litchi flight test right now and im somehow disappointed... the video feed is glitchi - just few meters from the RC... no way to fix it... no apps running on background, dji go4 disabled...
the waypoints function works fine, but if i have not clear visiual from the camera, its useless for me, as i want the craft fly autonomously while i can fully focus on video - framing the shot, focusing, controlling the gimbal...
i think Litchi needs to improve, or its no way for me

Wow... I just got an update for djigo4 and there are waypoints... Standalone... With editor... [emoji16]

Well, its available for Hyperlapse is what I meant to type.

Typically if DJIGO4 runs well and provides real time video then Lichti will do the same as Lichti uses less resources than DJIGO4 from my understanding.

For me litchi was cutting and the image was more frozen than moving...

Installing litchi and djigo on a iphone or ipad works fine however I have yet to have any of my androids work this way. I normally just run litchi as it is superior to the go app however It's nice to use the go app for updates etc. While I detest apple I only use ipads for my drones and have 4 ipad mini 2 units for this.

Using Litchi and Go4 on a Note 9 with no problems. Also have DJI Go4 Mod, Drone Harmony, Airmap and Red Waypoint. Have been switching between Go4, DJI Go4 Mod and Litchi all the time with no problems.

Seems like I read that the Waypoints feature is available now for the M2P, but not for the Mavic Pro. That's just from my memory, which, these days, is pretty limited.
