    Was it litchi or the IMU?

    Finding the P4 is proving much harder than i anticipated. All things a pointing to a particular tree (very large) yet despite many hours with binoculars and other peoples eyes helping, the P4 cannot be seen. I am now starting to consider other methods such as using a thermal camera to find the...

    Was it litchi or the IMU?

    good point, and it was slightly lower so maybe that could have been a factor.

    Was it litchi or the IMU?

    Thanks for both those replies. So I can be pretty sure then that the last indicated gps position is where the P4 is (given that i was able to reconnect and update location after the crash ie it wasnt a flyaway- is this even possible with litchi waypoint?) however altitude could be affected could...

    Was it litchi or the IMU?

    I was flying a previously flown litchi waypoint mission and for some reason my p4 flew into a tree that it had previously flown over. My altitude was set to 30m and the trees i guess are around 25m. So i am wondering what went wrong, and how do i get my p4 back, given that i cant see it up in...

    Litchi vs Autopilot for DJI

    just wondering because of the youtube he says that the inspire one controls the yaw but not the phantom 3 which doesnt have the 360 degree gimbal . Neither does the phantom 4 I believe

    Cinematographer Flight patterns

    I i suppose there are two types of users. Those wanting to have fun and document an area , by setting some way points and getting some nice footage. And then there are those who want to be a bit more artistic about it, and get the drone to take the video from just the right angle and framing. I...

    So can you for example fly to the subject concerned , move in/out up/down until the framing is what you want, then hit one of the c buttons ( i am guessing) and Litchi will record your gps coordinates, your elevation, orientation and the gimbal angle for you?

    Litchi - can I set my waypoints by flying to them manually?

    I am guessing that it has to do with video framing. As the phantom cameras have a fixed ie non zoom lens, you are stuck with what the lens gives you ie you cannot zoom unless you want to crop in ( which at 4 k is possible) . But it would be much better, to be able to get to the exact ultimate...

    Cinematographer Flight patterns

    I guess that is part of what i was getting at. I was looking at this and other similar videos and thought that , there was a degree of difficulty in some of those moveh that would be beyond most peoples skill. Certainly mine at this early stage. But i see an opportunity for the development of...
