I using Litchi for waypoint photography (at low altitude) and all seems to be working well. Photos are taken at the proper intervals, altitude, speed etc., all appear to be correct. I am using Litchi for my Mavic 2 Pro on a Smart Controller.
The problem I am having is that 80% of the time I visit my mission site(s) I have no internet connection with the SC, however I do maintain a connection with my Verizon onePlus8 android phone.
Since I cannot rely on the SC for internet connectivity perhaps I should use my Android phone as a 'hotspot' and have the SC acquire my Litchi flight missions at the Litchi Mission Hub via the internet on my phone. I would prefer to just upload the *.csv file directly into Litchi on the SC but have so far not found a way to do this. One post I found here at MavicPilots suggested
This would solve my problem but when I load the missions on the SC (while in Litchi on the internet at home) and try to load them when the internet is not available on the SC the Litchi flight list is empty.
I am doing plenty of research but so far no luck as to the particulars (one solution offers a cut and paste/Excel process but the problem is how to get it "into" Litchi on the SC).
Any ideas on how to approach this? I am sure to run into this regularly as most of my planned missions are off the beaten path (out in the country). I can count on Verizon for a signal, but not the SC. If I could "load" them into Litchi on the SC that would be great.
Thanks in advance for any ideas that might help. I will continue researching this topic and provide any updates here.

"...once you have saved a mission on mission hub make sure it is downloaded to your device and you are good to go internet connection is no longer needed."
