I have just purchased a DJI Mini 4 Pro with RC-2 and was wondering if a heading and distance of the proposed next waypoint can be entered into the RC-2?
I was thinking something like AutoCad where @50<40 means go 50 ft at 40 degrees from last point.
Would like to make a video of my property along property lines.

Thanks!

No, they cannot. There are three ways to create a waypoint mission for the Mini 4 Pro:

1) Dynamically by flying to the desired location and height of each waypoint and saving each position and height as part of a waypoint mission.
2) Use the map to place waypoint markers on the screen while using sliders to set other parameters such as the height.
3) Use external utilities to create a waypoint mission contained in a KMZ file and then manually import that KMZ file overwriting an existing KMZ file.

What you are describing is placing waypoints relative the the previous one. I know of no waypoint mission software that has that feature. Wouldn't it be easier to place them on a map where you can see the limits of your property?
