Another Litchi crash, well almost

[PhantomPhrank]

I have a Litchi mission which takes off from my culd de sac and flies around my house as a POI. I was flying this with the P3S. It was all going great until the last waypoint nearly gave me a heart attack. The last waypoint was supposed to descend to 9ft in the middle of the culd de sac....yeah it was more like 9 inches! I was certain it was going to crash, but luckily it didn't. Lesson learned. I am going to change that altitude to something like 50ft. I've heard that when flying Litchi waypoints you have to give it some room, but I guess I thought altitude was pretty solid.

Just putting this out there so others can avoid this!

Curse that Litchi app. When I first got my drone I was using the DJI-Go app and I crashed it. Darn that Litchi

haha, bad, BAD litchi

But seriously, regardless of what app you use, I would always allow much more than that for error. Makes for safer flying

This has nothing to do with litchI. It is not uncommon to see this sort of altitude error at the end of a flight, esp the first flight of the day.

Good to know. I will plan accordingly.
