Mavic Air Waypoints with Litchi
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 май 2018
- I was very disappointed to find out that DJI left out waypoints as part of the Mavic Air package. In this video, I want to show you how you can easily plan and execute a Mavic Air waypoint mission with the Litchi App.

I'm kinda new to Litch and I do not know all the in's and out's so feel free to share them below. Thank you for watching ;-)
Hi Tech, was wondering if it could be possible to set out a way-point within my house and control the camera as it moves through the set out route?
Doesn't the mavic air support follow mode with litchi? Does not work for me and that was the reason I bought litchi for :/
Your videos are always so good! I’m going to have to try Litchi with my Phantom 4. I like the layout of the interface better than DJI’s app. Also great is the ability to setup a mission without firing up the drone thereby burning battery. I really am glad I discovered your channel. You and Ken Heron are my favorite go 2 RC related channels.
I've been waiting on waypoints for the Mavic Air too. Thanks for the tutorial, it's really helpful. :)
Very nicely paced video and everything well explained. I just got my drone and just looking for ideas of what I can do with it. Litchi is definitely on the list for way point missions.
Just downloaded Litchi today. Thank you for your videos!
OUTSTANDING!!!! I tried to complete a mission that including taking photos and aiming at a POI but it didn't work. NOW I know I have to use straight lines and no curves and to disable AUTO RECORDING! Thanks SO much!!
Fantastic video Henrik thanks so much for this I've been wanting to get this and now i do
I love the Litchi App! I've been using it since Phantom 2 Vision+. Well done! 👍👌✌
Many thanks for sharing.
I like it too
New to the channel, Great stuff! I am getting my new Mavic Air Next week, I was contemplating between the Air and the 2 Zoom.
Great video, just got litchi myself, thank you for the info
Also, I use the Pano feature all the time. When using a stitching app you can make a wonderful 360 pano with a POI in the center and when making the pano from 100 feet or so it is spectacular.
Excellent job! Excellent!! Thank you!
thanks for your effort! helpful video
Thank you for the video! Excellent advice and this is exactly what I was looking for. Now I have to go try it out!
Did you ever use it how did it turn out
@@CHRISFREE84 Yes I did use it with the Mavic Air and it worked great! Could setup waypoints etc and worked like a charm. I ended up getting rid of the Mavic Air and upgraded to a Zoom model. Love this thing! Fun as heck! Now I have to think about going FPV! Looks fun
Thanks for the tips
Very nicely done. :)
Nice review - looks very cool app, and a good price, but will heed your warning at the end. Thanks.
Great video my friend
Fantastic video! I am definitely going to download Litchi. I heard that waypoints will soon be available for the DJI Spark, too.
Scott Cooper yes within sight and with the remote.
As far as you know is there a way to use mission hub to plan a waypoint mission, stop in the middle of the mission and do a pano (like you can a photo) then resume the mission.
Hey just bought the software thanks for the leson
Henrik, Outstanding tutorial as usual, thank you so much. I've been looking at Litchi for use on my Mavic Pro to be able to plot a complete course prior to flight! Any further information would be greatly appreciated, my thanks for all your help and information! BTW, what tablet are you using with your controller? Thank You!
Many Thanks for your tutorial. Do you have any information regarding litchi keys for Mavic air?
Love Litchi! I use it more than DJI
I really hope that one day they will make it that you can fly a path for lets say a minute and it remembers it, and so when you put it wherever it just flies that path exactly like you did it but on auto pilot instead of it flying to the saved points. cause I have some cool ideas but im by myself so that would make it so much easier to create cool stuff
Can you show how to shoot motion hyperlapse with/without litchi and Mavic air (like new Mavic 2 models)
Use prop guards if in a sensitive area.
Love all the videos, very helpful thank you. Do you know if Litchi will work with the Mavic Mini?
It will not, requires DJI have released an SDK allowing 3rd parties to control the drone
Some crazy hyper lapses loading... :)
Very nice video, well explained how Waypoints work with Litchi app for DJI Mavic Air.
Quick question, when you fly Waypoints mission with Litchi app, does the telemetry data / flight data show on the live video feed from the drone? If yes then is there a way to get rid of it?
Thanks in advance. Keep up the good work!
I supposed you can do full screen in Litchi, but have not tried
Nice Video! Very well explained Tutorial! Just curious will the FVP mode & head tracking (immersive) work with 'WayPoints' on Litchi App + DJI Mavic Pro/Air?? Thanks.
no
Thanks my friend FOR tips.
I Subscribe your Tube 😉👌👍
I've tried litchi but during rth, i almost lost my mavic air due to it drifts with the wind, can anybody explain what happend...
Thanks for the video. I have a concern with this. See the phantoms had on board storage, so you the mission was uploaded to the drone and once this happened, the drone would carry out the mission regardless if the drone lost signal or not. I have read where people have lost their mavic air if they were trying to do a mission, and it lost signal. ...
The same will happen to the Mavic air it will complete the mission, but if something screws up the mission like magnetic interference without having contact with the drone, you might lose it.
Does the Litchi app work with Mavic air 1 or only with the Mavic air 2 ?
can we get the coordinates of those points
Doesn't the mavic air support follow mode with litchi? Does not work for me and that was the reason I bought litchi for :/
Does MA in Lichi missions uses APAS? Or at least sensors to stop?
I'm actually not sure, but I don't think Litchi use APAS
The question maybe already answered: when i set waypoint very long, and my battery get out, he abort mission and return home ?
great video ! Can you pogram litchi to fly BACKWARDS amongst the waypoints ?
Yes :-)
Halløj Henrik og endnu en gang tak for din meget brugbare vidoer ,men tænker hvis jeg installere Litchi på min smartphone kan den så også bruges på min tablet eller skal jeg betale for det 2 gange. Mvh
Selv tak, der må jeg være dig et svar skyldig, det ved jeg ikke.
Hi Henrik, good video! Can you please make a video about gimbal overload error. My magic air is only 2 month old. And never chrased.
Never seen this error on my Mavic Air
Hi there,
I started doing waypoint grid missions with my mavic air last week and the one thing I could not figure out is if there is a waypoint of restarting where the drone had to abandon the mission due to low battery. In other words, I'd be flying a grid, would almost be done a grid line but not quite and the drone would abandon the mission to go back home due to low battery. Then when starting it again, I would need to delete all the waypoints I have already flown on my grid for the drone to start again at more or less the same place. (If my grid lines were 500m for example and it had flown 400m of the 500, I would still need to restart that whole grid line) Any way of solving this? Thanks!
Interesting and very useful feature. I'm not sure it's available right now
delete all waypoints prior to the one where previous mission ended, save as new mission then fly new saved mission beginning at the new 1st waypoint.
I enjoyed watching the video, do you think this app is worth buying and outperforms DJI for Go
On features yes, but not as smooth as DJI’s own software
I have a problem with Litchi and Mavic Air ... when i recording videos... they have very poor quality... i tried every settings and i didn't find any information about in the internet why it happend?
Do you have an idea what can it be?
Thanks a lot
The raw files look bad on the SD card?
Litchi wants me to change from RC O F MODE I am confused
Love litchi. Don’t use it enough.
I started using litchi with mavic air and found that I was very limited in camera settings for videos. Can you help me?
You have the same options for shutter, iso as you have in the normal app
Sir may i ask you, how far away can you plan a waypoint mission with the air and this app ? Will as an example 2 km mission range be a problem ?
As far as I know, only legislation and battery life prevent you from doing this. If you lose contact with the drone it will continue the mission.
Thank you very much for a good answer.
I can attest that this is exactly correct. In the right circumstances, I have had a 4 mile route perform using 70% of my battery. For most of that journey, the drone was out of contact with the controller and phone. It executed the waypoints and thankfully returned!
Hi Can I use Mavic Air for 3d Mapping ? I am not much concerned about the accuracy. (50 cm -1 m accuracy is good enough).
Yes, it will do fine for that. Flight time might give problems with larger areas
Thanks for your reply. Which flight plan software can I use for creating overlap flight plans?
Pix4d or Dronedeploy both have trail versions you can play with
Ramsankaran RAAJ I used MapMadeEasy several times. They calculate smaller mission with
Hello, would I be able to save missions off line with no internet connections out in another country for example. And is the Litchi app stable ? Can't afford to lose the drone in a foreign country ! Thank you for your tutorials.
yes, you can do that if make sure to download the map in the app. Litchi is ok, but 100% stable it's not.
Looks like the corners are still flown quite "cornery", despite smooth setting... right?
Changing to curve disables the actions for each waypoint, but even with the curve It’s not 100% smooth
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA Thats a pity! Thanks for the info though!
Do you know what they are talking about, going from RC MODE TO F MODE?
Not really
Where do I go to take my FAA test please anyone 👨✈️✍️ I’m so ready ❤️❤️❤️
Carlos Martinez PSI testing, are you in Miami?
Can litchi follow and orbit at the same time?
hmm, can't remember, but why as DJI offer this feature
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA I have tried this feature with Go4 but it keeps losing my jeep when I'm driving about 5 MPH. It will lose me totally or jump from me to another car
Good day sir, is it safe to fly mavic air with litchi?. is it accurate?.
no, you need to keep an eye on it. It works pretty nice, but I don't trust it
Hi, we need waypoints for exactly the opposite reason as yourself, we want to fly the Magic air mapping the route as we go, this is because we film in forests with many obstacles. Can we do this with Litchi? :-)
I don’t think so
Thanks for the reply@@TECHDRONEMEDIA
L&M Yes you can create a litchi mission "on the fly" as you fly. I am still also fairly new to this as well but have created and flown several missions "on the fly" as I fly. I also live and fly in dense woodland along with mountainous terrain with a Mavic platinum. The mission is created by pushing certain buttons on the controller during a flight at each location you want a "point of interest" or a waypoint. See the "keys" part of litchi settings to see what keys (buttons) to push. You may want to manually "tweak" each waypoint for things like flight speed, camera angle, which point of interest when, etc before flying the newly created mission. I set my overall mission flight speed at 2.5 MPH so that I have time to react if the drone is going to hit any obstacle during mission flight. I can always speed up my mission in video editing.
What happens if the connection breaks down? The drone will continue missions? Will he come back to the starting place?
Lucas Skyler it continues as far as I recall
I would have to test on some open ground, set a mission and turn off the controller (or hide it in the trunk of the car) and see if the drone will do its job and come back safely.
does it work with mavic air 2
Yes
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA is this app free for android users
No $25
The exif GPS data is still useless...
I'll was all pumped until he got to the part about flyaways.
what
Sorry, but this video is useless if you don’t know how litchi works. Actions at way points with curves for example don’t workas the drone never reaches the way point. The software will tell you that actually....
Pretty impressed, I use DJI GSP . Pretty much does the same thing but I fly a Mavic Pro. Awesome demo .
