Thanks, nice hearing that. Yes, it is identical in every way except missing locking waypoints and stacking multiple actions at a waypoint (can only do one). Happy flying!

Nice job on the video. Based on what I see I still like Litchi for several reasons already stated in other comments. I have a Mavic Pro and still find it does what I need for travel and general work. My Typhoon H Plus is my main bird for when I want the best footage and stills, but uses another way to plan flights and missions. Not as good as Litchi, but still pretty good.

Great Video and demo. Should let everyone know that you can pre plan by initially doing it with both the drone and the remote on, but once you have waypoint open on your device you can turn off both drone and remote.

Excellent demonstration, now just need some half-decent weather to give this a go.

WOW. long waited feature. Mind blowing

Hi, nice presentation, thank you. I set this up your way today and had 4 photos taken. All 4 were out of focus! Where can I set it to automatically focus the photos per waypoint? I hope you can tell me this because it's a shame he focused everything on the first test flight but the final flight didn't focus!

Neat new feature! Have been using the Litchi-app (for the MP) quite alot so it looks very familiar. It´s cool that this waypoint-system is in the DJI GO 4 app finally! Just got one problem with this, the "jerky" camera movement?? When for ex. sliding sideways and focusing on a fixed point. IMO it makes the whole shot unusable? Good tutorial video, nice planning and execution, thumbs up from Sweden!

Yes, it's nice DJI finally added a much more powerful waypoint system like Litchi. It's still got issues and limitations, but hopefully they'll come out with an update. Is the jerky camera movement occurring at a waypoint? If so, substantially increase the Turning Radius at that waypoint. And thanks for your nice comment about my video! Happy flying in Sweden!

Is there any option or alternative for when it reaches the waypoints it shouldn't stop, I mean I want smooth Cinematic footage.

PhillyDroneLife I tip my hat to you sir, you must have some mad skills. I dove straight into the autonomous stuff right away but I still fly stick as well. Although if it’s that silky smooth video you’re after it’s hard to beat software. I’m going to attempt an extreme Hyperlapse ( a 500 unit construction site) probability a 2 year project. In a case like that the flight path and actions (speed, gimbal etc.) would have to be “bullet” every time. Only software and satellites can do that. All the best, Larry

@mark_barrentine

5 жыл бұрын

I still prefer Litchi because I can do all of the planning and creation from my PC in a web browser which is infinitely better than the GO 4 app. Should the need arise the Litchi app allows you to create and save waypoints WITHOUT the drone running requirement in the GO 4 app thus saving your drone battery for actual flight time. Once the planning is done, I can then export the flight path into Google Earth to see if there are any issues with it. For example the first flight I planned I didn't put a waypoint on top of a small mountain and Google Earth showed the flight path going through the mountain and not over it, thus saving me a drone. Another advantage is the Litchi community. By this I mean you can create and share waypoints with others and likewise you can use waypoints from others as well. The DJI app has a ways to go (like the drone running requirement and no creation from your PC) before I'll switch.

@RogerioSchreiner

Litchi has one big pain. It doesn't pitch the gimbal if there is no RC signal, so it loses POI focus until RC signal returns. Have to test this on Waypoints 2.0

Mark Barrentine Understood, and it may be that litchi IS more flexible. On the other hand there is a certain confidence or comfort using a familiar platform as in my case.

I certainly hope Dji comes out with some desktop software (comparable to Litchi Mission Hub) so you can create all of your missions on a PC/MAC laptop without having to have the drone and the app running. Litchi makes it so simple. Plus I HATE fingerprints on my device screen. That's why I try and set a button (C1/C2 or 5D) for all functions possible.

Kinda for the weaker pilots. I see comments about DJI to hopefully have a zoom feature. Listen, if you’re incapable of handling these very simple tasks I guess this is a great feature for you. Years ago you shot amazing footage because you managed to eventually hone your skills. Now, a 5 yr old can create cinematic footage. Which too is great. This is why we’re all moving away from DJI and onto the Alta 8 by freefly systems hauling a Red Cinema Camera. DJI took away the ability to learn. Par for the course today. Kids and adults alike don’t have to be intelligent. Or Skillful. You can be a total dope now. I’m disappointed, I fear for the future. Hey what’s 9 divided by 7? Hold on, let me get my calculator. Which we too years ago couldn’t use. Times are changing and the dumbing down of Americans is complete!! Mission accomplished
