Hi Alastair,
May I point out to you our record flight and the re-fly it smoothly feature which I almost exclusively used to make videos recently on my honeymoon in Hawaii. It works as follows:
1. Start the record manual flight mode in the flight plan catalog.
2. Fly manually the drone to different locations where you have a really nice view of your scenery. At each location take a picture. Be aware that the sequence you do this in, will be the sequence the drone will fly afterwards again automatically to record the video.
3. Once you have all shots you want to stop the recording (bottom right stop button).
4. Now click on the recorded flight (which appears on the top icon bar after you stopped the recording).
5. Tap the magic wand tool on the left in order to convert your recorded flight into a new mission. You have three options to do this ( I almost always use smooth Plan using Photos).
6. The (smoothend) mission appears on the right and you are now ready to re-fly this computed mission automatically and record a smooth video (play button at bottom right).
You can also watch one of the following videos to get a better understanding on how the process works:
Let me know what you think about it.
Best regards,
Martin, CEO
