    Waypoints Problem: Too Low When Take Off From Cliff / Hill Top

    I get a waypoints error about setting a way point too low when I take off from an elevated position (such as a cliff or a hill top). Is there any way around this besides just flying controlled by hand??? (Using Phantom 3 Advanced and DJI Go App.) For example: I was filming a house yesterday...

    Hi guys. First let me start off by saying im very new to drones - less then a week with my Phantom. I wanted to be able to fly my drone way past the reach of my controller to be able to record and snap some photos of the construction happening on my house on a daily basis. Looking into it I...

    New To Droning and Litchi - Not Working Out Well

    I am new to droning as well as using the Litchi app. I purchased a Phantom 4 Pro and had been getting used to flying it with the Go 4 app when I found the Litchi app and purchased it. I have created several practice missions and they do not work as planned and am wondering whether I am doing...

    Bring my drone to exactly the same GPS location once a month.

    Hi all, I want to follow up the construction of a high tower. I want to shoot maybe once a month, every time the drone should be in exactly the same position, the results would look like a timelapse over 2 years. Does anybody have experience with this? Can I do it with waypoints? Can I save...

    Attention Litchi Users!

    Litchi pilots please help! I have a P3S with an antenna mod. Following enthusiastic recommendation I have recently installed Litchi on my Samsung Galaxy S7 for use with my P3S. So far I have only used the VR FPV mode. Very neat to say the least. Surprisingly high resolution. So I'm now doing...

    14 CFR 107.31 Re: VLOS and Waivers

    I read that some people regard the "Visual Line of Sight" to include use of the controller, and NOT necessarily mean that my eyes MUST SEE THE DRONE IN THE AIR SPACE. Will people who have actually taken the certification class, or people who actually have the 107 cetification, please tell me...

    Litchi or DJI-Go for video of large areas???

    I am going to take video of a large 17 acre parcel, and forsee that I will need to have the drone outside my line of sight to accomplish the entire mission. Does Litchi allow for better autonomous flight than the Go app? I will need to take panoramic pics as well. How do I go about taking...

    Waypoints At Specific Distances?

    Dose anyone know a app or software that would allow me to do the following. 1) Draw a straight path or curved path 2) Set waypoints along set bath (10, 20, 30, etc) 3) Have waypoints evenly spaced automatically or by setting (ie 10ft, 15ft, 50ft) 4) Set photo actions at each waypoint. I...

    Litchi Mission Hub

    Hey guys, have any of you tried to create a mission lately in the Litchi mission hub? I cannot get it to work. When I click on a waypoint the box that is supposed to pop up to let you make changes to that waypoint does not come up for me. I cannot change or even set the height. If I go into...

    New Litchi Hub Changes

    I just went into Litchi Hub to tweak a few things on one of my routes only to find that the POI data for all of my waypoints has disappeared! I was more than a bit confused to say the least. After a bit of digging around, as well as some trial and error, I decided to pull up the Litchi homepage...

    Litchi interpolation help!!

    I've searched many times using different ways of explaining my problem but can't find an answer. I'm pretty sure I understand how it works BUT... Every time I change the gimble angle on interpolation and create a new waypoint, or press next waypoint, or just click the next waypoint, the angle...

    Litchi speed between waypoints

    I love Litchi and the software that allows these quads to fly independent of the controller. Yes you have to be very careful about height of your surroundings but if you haven't tried it I would encourage you to give it a shot. I have a question that I haven't seen discussed here for some...

    Ya know what sucks... Litchi..

    No... not Litchi... but the lack of clear instructions when using it... just a trial and error process and only sucks when I have one chance to do something and it just doesn't or didn't come out the way I wanted.. When setting those way points I wanted a nice sweeping view but couldn't...

    shooting video for 3 point cloud creation

    Looking for advise to do a shoot for a real estate client who wants to create a 3 point cloud. Is it true that drone flight paths to create 3 point clouds are most effective when they criss-cross over the site? Are these best shot in 4k? And finally, does the p3pro have to be programmed...

    Poi setting in Litchi

    Can anyone explain to me what the poi settings mean in Litchi. In my example (see print) is my first waypoint (start of the mission) on a altitude of 18 m. Or do they mean the first waypoint who is focussed to this waypoint (that is 30 m.). And what does this men: "Ground Elevation: -3m (0m...

    P4P+ camera control (yaw) in 'waypoints' mode

    Hi there, I need the 'waypoints' mode to survey and record specific areas. Unlike my p3a, the DJI go 4 app on my new phantom 4 pro + (on the built-in display) does not allow to yaw the drone (i.e. rotate the aircraft horizontally) during the waypoints mode. There is a 'free' option for my p3a's...

    Will This Litchi Waypoint Survive?

    So I want to fly my Phantom 3 Standard with the litchi app. Now I have used waypoints before and all so I know what I am doing. Tomorrow we should have around 3-8 mph wind and I want to try a kinda long waypoint. Waypoint info: Distance- 15,642ft in total. (There and back) Altitude- 100ft...

    Litchi waypoint mission won't start/upload?

    Hi all. I'm pretty new to the drone thing and loving it. So I bought the Litchi app specifically so I could take some solid areal footage of my dad's farm. I set up some small missions to orbit around the outbuildings and barns, as well as a cable cam type of shot going down the property line...
