Learning Litchi: Episode 1 - DJI Drone Waypoint Mission First Attempt

Fist episode in a serise on the Litchi App for DJI Drones.

Building and flying a Waypoint Mission

[GadgetInspector]

Excellent tutorial. After all these years of flying drones I’m just now looking into getting into this app. Great job, great voice.

I'm glad I found your series. I picked up Litchi today on Black Friday 11/24/23 to have for my boy who's getting a Mimi 2 for Christmas. It'll be fun to plan missions with him.

[Brett.Williams]

Thank you once again for your tutorials.

Great video and Litchi is looking good.

[ACRC]

Great video. Simplified and easy to understand.

The Mission Hub is great !!!! Plan your missions on desktop and they will be there to load and fly at any time. ... or on site in app - and the mission is synced to Web for access at desktop.

I have just also purchased Maven - for the GeoFence feature - younger kids can fly freely - but within limited 3D area for safety !!

[Gadgets]

Pretty cool.. They should implement it like the way DJI has it where you can fly to the way points and mark them

[lwuoehs]

😄"freedom mode" that's great.

Excellent video as always, I have just taken the plunge with Litchi and will use you video series as a guide. One thing I will probably add to my process is something you included in your crash analysis and is also featured in the video "Visual Mission Planning with Google Earth", this being the ability to import your planned mission in to Google Earth. This gives a clearer view of any potential hazards. I have not used that approach before. The last leg of your mission had the camera focus on the Town Hall (is that what you said it was?) - so was the drone flying backwards for the return leg of this journey?

[RichardsWorld]

Is this loaded on to the drone? For example if the remote loses connection with the drone, will it continue the mission or return to home?

[jaatietaja]

Thanks for great demo. I'd be interested to know, how do you fix the jerky movement.

[TheAshantidutch]

H, i and thank you for posting these videos, so my question is when you created the mission, and you elected the dom, e it came up with a height of 3 feet is that height above the dome or the ground level, thank you in advance

Hey man, great video! I was just wondering, i have the dji controller with the built in screen.

If i just want to fly a pre planned route, do i need to buy a seperate controller meant for phone use? Or can i just use the phone without any controller? Thanks!

[jerbear]

Good video and well explained. Bought my first drone 2 months ago. The DJI Air 2s and today I bought the Litchi app. Got a question though. Actually two questions. 1. At 10:17 How did you get your map/screen to switch views...and 2. Have you used your camera's Screen Recorder to capture your mobile device Litchi App video..

[JoshBarryPhotography]

Question. What process are you using in post processing to fix the somewhat jerky camera movement to make it more smooth? Thanks in advance?

[DroneEyesInTheSkies]

I did find that when I had curves enabled, even the first way point action never initiated. Not just the way points it never hit.

For now keeping curves off - not sure why curves didn’t work for me.

[OdalysPov]

great video, so i tried to use waypoint today for the first time and put POI on each waypoint but my camera did not capture the point of interest it just looked straight to the course? any reason why?

[oadventuresinafrica]

Hi Sir, I want to start and use Either Litchi or Maven. From your experience which one will you recommend as the better one?

[MikesPOV]

If I have a home Way-point A set at 200ft, and a Way-point B set at 55ft, at what point will Litchi drop the altitude? Over Way-point B?

[robertzimmerman]

What are the white numbers in the black boxes between way points?
