Vertical autopilot possible? To smoothly film tower bottom to top.

[Keisersozze]

Is there an autopilot option to film something smoothly like a tall building from the ground level to the very top? Or from top to bottom?

Also for 'point of interest', is it possible to do just a 180degree flight instead of a full 360? Or can I just stop the flight manually once its does a half circle around the object?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Sounds like a job for a waypoint mission. LITCHI is my app of choice for that, but DJI Go 4 does it too. The first waypoint will be either at the top of bottom of the building, and second waypoint at the other. Then you can play with the parameters, like meters per second (speed). You can either start recording, then start the waypoint mission, or you can program the mission to turn on recording at the first waypoint.

You could probably program a waypoint mission for your POI question too, but you can also just stop it after it does half of one circle.

Seems waypoint doesn't work for me. The second point needs to be different then right on top of the first point it seems. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.
