Thanks for posting the tutorial. I just got my Mavic last week and did not understand how to set my way points. This was extremely helpful. Hopefully DJI will put out an update for pre-planning. However, DJI probably does not want people running waypoints without flying them first for the possibilty somebody will program a waypoint that has an obstacle in their route. Even though the Mavic has avoidance sensors, there is that chance it would fail while somebody wasn't paying attention. So they most likely don't want the liability of having that feature.

Great Vid Michael! I am looking to get a Mavic Pro in the near future ( Gotta wait and see if I get one for Xmas :) ). I am watching as much content as I can till i get mine.

great video, thanks for the tips

That is a great idea to use a daytime waypoint setup for a night flight. I was wondering about how to make that work.

Thanks for the video. I may have missed this, but as the Mavic flys the route, can you adjust the camera however you want or is it based on what the camera was doing when you first recorded the route?

Great video. First time I tried a waypoint mission it worked perfectly, now when I enter waypoints & press done, that altitude message is in red & the mission upload fails. Any ideas?

Do you know If is It possible and how can apply a point of interest moviment during a waypoint misson?

I hope Litchi app works properly w Mavic Pro at a time I receive my dude! For now, thanks for all this free tutorials! bye

Two questions. 1.) Around 1:50 into the video you make the gps take up most of the screen instead of the camera view, how did you do that? 2.) I am attempting to use way points to create a downward spiral motion. I believe the gps waypoint screen tells you the exact location of each way point. As opposed to flying the drone around is there a way just to input the waypoints into the gps screen?

Hi Michael. You're the man!! Thank you for all of the tutorials. I was wondering- during your waypoint mission, on each new point, the camera makes a sharp turn to face the new direction. Is there any way to smooth these turning points out so its like a giant loop, as opposed to linear turns?

@MichaelKincaiddontroughit

grantpichla I don't think it's possible within DJI Go but it is within Litchi app.

Just to make sure, I assume that you can of course also draw those waypoints on the map, prior to the flight, right?

what features do you have to have a cell signal on the mavic?

Is it possible to record INDOOR waypionts without GPS, only using the proximity sensors?

Hey! About the speed. Even though you set it to 22.4 mph (which btw equals to 36 kph) the drone flies appx 33 mph, seems like this is not a bug, but a maximum achieved speed in waypoints mode according to the SKD (15 m/s). The trick is, how you did it? Did you push the stick towards or used a patched app? Thanks!

can the mavic air do this as well ?

Thank you for the video and time and effort into making it. However, I still do not understand why DJI does not make pre-planning and pre-loading missions possible as does the Litchi app. Why dos DJI require you to fly the route to record waypoints when Litchi does not? "Autonomous" waypoint missions should be able to be recorded pre--flight for DJI products.

Originally they did, but they had several idiots make missions without considering obstacles and they had crashes into houses and other things. So from then on DJI requires us to fly the mission first. I agree with you it's a pain, but a few always ruin it for the masses. Hence Litchi!

would be good if you could do it in on the map and it follows it. flying first is only any good if you are going to be doing it over n over, in say tests.

Hi!! Really like your videos.. really educational and beautiful scenery around your house. Have you experienced any problems with DJI's android app??

Kim Frederiksen Yes, the app did crash one time and I was in complete panic mode as my home point was under some trees so if RTH would have kicked in it would have bad. Luckily it was only hovering 5' off the ground so I just grabbed it. Trying to restart the app with one hand and hang onto a angry Mavic with the other was a bit unnerving to say the least. I've only had that one issue and it could have been in conjunction with me using the screen recording app mobizen

Having to fly a route to use the waypoint feature is a big disadvantage. You use twice the battery power to do just what again? DJI needs to modify the feature to pre-plan flights and upload them; like Litchi.

engineerus0 the max height depend by DJI hardware/software/firmware limit. DJI told me for the Mavic Pro is (or could be, it depend where you go to fly) 500 meters, as for others. With Litchi app you can program the flight on the Google Map and write also the altitudes from the take off point, for each Waypoint, also negative altitudes.

The problem is that location where I usually drone have a pretty bad signal. So, I could not pre-fly it to record waypoints (often lost signal). I drone mostly above the highway to record traffic for my work. Could you recommend anything to autopilot waypoints? Thanks

great video.I agree litchi is much better thought dji would have taken away the need to pre fly the route with the mavic pro.

What should this be useful for. I can imagine recording the entire flight, fair enough but recording each point is suks.. Alternatively I could see setting these way points on offline on map before the flight.. But having to copter to fly out for setting points will kill the battery for nothing..

Looks like it did allow you to change the altitude, after WP3 it started a decent. Maybe you fly to the point and altitude then save the WP.

@MichaelKincaiddontroughit

Rich C. Correct, you set your altitude by manually flying the route, you just can't adjust the saved route. The only thing I see you can adjust is the speed.

I did notice that all your turns on the waypoints are sharp turns on the go app where on the litchi app you can have curves and set the degree of the curve you want to do makes it move more nicer on the video.

Son Ero, yes, you can abort the WP mission on the screen, set the first Low Battery level warning and Litchi calculates, live, the safe moment to come back to the Home Point. You can also abort this auto feature, during the returning, obviously at your own risk. The Litchi advise (voice and on the monitor), as: the aircraft ask Go Home could appear also with a 60% battery if you are far, because is dynamical, it depends how far and how hight is the drone. Also the long press of the RTH button on the remote control remain usable (for Inspire 1 Pro, but do not know with Mavic Pro, I still waiting to receive).

The old Waypoint was way better. They should reconsider it because the resent drones now have sensors, so it'll be ideal.

To record the altitude you want with the GoApp you simply fly to that altitude when you are recording the way points. Still is stupid that you have to fly the waypoints as this wastes battery power. It is a shame you have to go to a 3rd party app to do it the right way.
