Hi Phantom Pilots,
There is a growing thread on the MavicPilots forum entitled "Virtual Litchi Mission" which you may be interested in.
"Virtual Litchi Mission" or VLM is a (free!) PC utility which reads a csv file exported from Litchi and converts it to a "Virtual Mission" which you can then fly in Google Earth. This "Virtual Mission" includes the heading and gimbal settings from Litchi and so the result is very similar to the real mission which you will eventually get when you fly your drone. You can fly your Litchi Mission without even getting out of your armchair!
VLM is useful to check that there are no erroneous parameters in your Litchi Mission and to check that the camera ‘sees’ what you want it to see at each waypoint. It has saved me several wasted flights with my Mavic.
I originally introduced the utility on the MavicPilots forum because I have a Mavic - but of course it should be equally useful for Phantom pilots.
VLM is a standalone win10 executable which requires no installation - the latest version is attached to this post.
The user guide is reasonably complete and can found under the "Help" tab.
You will find the original MavicPilots thread here - Virtual Litchi Mission
Please give VLM a try and get back to me with problems or compliments...!
