Tutorial: 3D flight path on Google Earth

Hi guys,

Just a quick tutorial I made while learning to create 3D flight maps on Google Earth with the telemetry of the Mavics

Very cool... Thank you.

Possible to do also directly from your TXT flight log ... I tried to download one of my logs from Airdata in GPX format then continued from there in the tutorial and it worked fine ... tried this way instead of my Mavic Air SRT's as those are pretty much useless with no telemetry data included.

Thanks @Dedal

@slup Yes, good point! I haven't worked much with the TXT logs before as I always used with the SRT files (the Air is one of the very few models that do no inclue GPS data in the SRTs). What's the usual way to extract those? Thanks

If you look here --> Flight log retrieval and analysis guide and read under point 3. you have the procedure over how to retrieve the Mobile device DJI TXT logs (the log is in the mobile device you flew with...) .

Upload then the log to Airdata.com (you don't need a paid subscription) ... once uploaded there, then under General/Overview, under the map download it in GPX format.
