Man, this guy has the softest voice EVER!! Very solid instructions, I may go out and try the waypoints tomorrow. I purchased but never tried it on the Bebop

Great video for people like me, just started with anafi.

[soularproject]

So glad to find your tutorials. Superb!!! Getting ready to get the Anafi. You are helping me get a jump start.

[GorillamansGarage]

Very comprehensive. I will keep this one in my library :) ... Have you used Vysor?? In Chrome? .. you can mirror your phone on the computer so you can use your mouse, keyboard etc to create the flight plan. Makes it tons easier.

I’ve just got the Anafi, thanks this is really helpful 👍

[toomuchcake]

I'm thinking about buying an Anafi and this has swung it for me. Thank you so much for the expert tutorial and in depth look at this really valuable feature! Great video.

[milsurprifles]

Outstanding video and explanation! Thank you.

Just going through this video (after having seen your flight plan execution video...yep I'm watching them in reverse)...I have a couple of questions:

1) Do you set your device (phone) to fly in airplane mode? I've had the App present a message suggesting that I switch to airplane mode in response to interference issues while I was flying. So I'm assuming that one should always fly in airplane mode to minimize interference. Thoughts?

2) If you do fly in airplane mode do you download the Google map area where you will be flying to your device (phone) in advance of going to Flight plan destination....I'm assuming you'd have to do that because otherwise I think the maps wouldn't be available when flying in airplane mode so at minimum you wouldn't have the map available when you start the flight plan...or maybe the flight plan wouldn't work at all because you didn't download the map? Thoughts?

3) If you don't elect to have the Anafi land at the last flight plan location (waypoint) will the Anafi just hover at the height of the last waypoint waiting for instruction? If you do set it to land on the last waypoint, I'm assuming that it won't completely land but that it will hover a few feet off the ground much like it does in RTH mode? It seemed to "completely" land in your Flight plan execution video but that may be because you hit the land button in the app or on the controller. Please confirm.


Thanks

Always good my man... does this work in every country anywhere?

[carlosd.]

Great tutorial as usual! Thank you.
What happens if you add let us say 2 photos to your flight plan while the Anafi is filming? Would you get 3 separate video clips and 2 photos or would you get a single continuous video and 2 photos.
Keep up the great work.

[JackO-xxri]

Very helpful tutorial, thank you very much. I love my Anafi!!!

[gamedex]

Ah... this I have been extensively using on my Bebop2Power. You are right, Bebop2 ( and even Bebop1, when I still had one ) goes on to complete the flight plan even at loss of signal. Something to add though, and is just my personal take, I always make it a point though to have my landing spot on or close to where I took off. I dont wanna be running to the landing spot should I lose my signal to the drone and could not reestablish it, which happened to me before. I am quite sure the Anafi can go on and complete the flight plan even without signal, or that would be a downgrade right? Can't wait for your next vid to confirm that.

[termination]

So it looks like you can program all the anafi's functions including getting the camera to point straight up during flight plan execution EXCEPT the zoom function... is that right?

[monteulm]

It doesn't appear that you can control the zoom in flight plan. It should be automatic. I think that would be a great feature.

[mzimmerman]

Is your set altitude based off of your take of point? Like if you take off from a hill with your height set at 100 feet and then you circle around the hill, will the height be based off of the top of the hill, not the area around it where the drone happens to be flying.??

[mzimmerman]

Is there any way to "Find Your Drone" if some how it lands for some unforeseen reason. Like the DJI "Find my drone" feature.

[johnsalt]

Hi gi you not got the flight plan flight up yet have you

[DadRandom]

I am sooo... close to pressing the buy button on the Anafi

[paulmcclure]

Crazy, in the Bebop2 flight plan you could type in any altitude, but in freeflight 6 it limits everything to 492ft....

[esparus]

Thank you for your video.
I would like to report that I have created a web page that greatly simplifies the creation of a flight plan for Parrot Anafi and allows you to perform operations that are not present in FF6. For example, rotating the flight plan or moving it to a new position.
