Hyperlapse

[EllyBrandi]

Has anyone found the answer to “camera orientation angle too small/large” error message when setting a waypoint in Hyperlapse mode? What does it mean and how is it corrected?

I have asked the technical support of DJI on line about this. As usual they are never able to explain it clearly so at the end I was still left with a lot of question marks in my mind. However, the guy did mention two things :

1) The "angle too small" error is due to neighboring waypoints being too close to each other.

2) The error messages are given because the app thinks that if selected waypoint ( and orientation ) is taken, the resulting hyperlapse footage will likely be jerky due to the limited precision of gimbal movement and yaw control of the craft.

Why ? the reasons are not clearly explained.

I will test it out with my M2P and see if I can fill in the gap and come up with a sensible explanation.

I have reported my finding in this new thread : Mavic 2 waypoint hyperlapse - camera angle too small / big message

Thanks for that, it makes sense. DJI told me to re calibrate the gimbal......??
