Hyperlapse Circle didn't complete 360 degrees

[Dronenewbie8]

Using Hyperlapse Circle in the Mavic 2 Pro, how do you know how much shooting has to be done to make sure the drone makes a full 360 degree circle? Today I tried this and the shooting ended after the drone had circled about 60% of the subject. Thx.

You have to do a long one and I have only got around that much so far. Figuring out the time and distance from what your center point is the key. I only tried a few but that point was so far off it wasn't no way to get it around 360.Will have to try something up close and see .

Hy never done this but, you can use {pie = 3.142] x Diameter to give you the distance around the circle .diameter would be twice the distance away from the center or subject:-
distance -20 mtr X 2 = 40 X 3.142 = 125.7 mtrs around the circle
Fly mavic at 5mtrs/sec
125.7/5 = 25.14 seconds of flight time
fly mavic at 0.5mtrs/sec
125.7/0.5 = 251.4sec/60 to get minutes = 4.19 minutes
The / means divide

Hope this helps

For the total shots taken flight time 4.19 mins= 251.4 sec if mavic set at 2 sec intervals 251.4 /2 =125.7 photos

125 shots is only a 5 second hyper set at 2 . Kind fast of a 360 I would think .
