    Maps

    Maps. I’m wondering why I went to Florida for vacation and the maps of Florida didn’t come up? I live in Atlanta and Maps are always there. So.....how does Mapping work? I have a P4, P3P, Spark, Mavic Pro and even a Tello? I also use a Crystal Sky 7”

    Is the Crystalsky worth it?

    Worth every penny!

    Best for the money? *monitors*

    I bought the CrystalSky Ultra and it is amazing. I hope in the future it will be Litchi capable. Yes it’s expensive but your bird costs just as much....I have 3 birds and hopefully I’ll be able to use my Ultra on my Mavic Pro sometime in the future!!!

    I bought a new P4 that was rebuilt by DJI for $799. It's fine and glad to have the speed back! Sent from my iPad using PhantomPilots

    Things were happening fast and I didn't think about that! Darn. I'm an advanced RC pilot and things happen real fast flying a RC aircraft. The P4 is steady and so easy to control! Thanks Sent from my iPhone using PhantomPilots

    Just lost my Phantom 4 in the Gulf of Mexico. This is what happened. It was all pilot error! We were at a big Channel Marker in St. Petersburg heading out! We were in a 28ft fast fishing boat and the Home Point was set at that point where the flight started. Slowly the driver (a retired...

    Litchi and gimbal angles flying waypoints and POI's

    I was struggling with topography when flying missions. You have been kind enough to share time and effort you've learned and experienced. I've learned like I'm back in college again and that I need to study much more to pass the exam. I bought a very fast laptop to work on videos but what I...

    Litchi and gimbal angles flying waypoints and POI's

    Will do jiggyb21. I haven't used the mission hub much. I think you are on to something. They are curved turns set to cruise speed of 23mph they are 298 ft 246 ft then 27ft high. They are 117 and 131 ft spacings. So they are moving too fast to reach down. The outside two are moving to the...

    Litchi and gimbal angles flying waypoints and POI's

    Lastly I've flown the mission with a P3P and a P4 with the same result. I do golf courses from a strategy perspective and this problem arises doing particular angle shots. I'm wondering if it could be a bad alogorithm? I'm a ME by trade but too old to do those equations! Sent from my...

    Litchi and gimbal angles flying waypoints and POI's

    When you say main settings do you mean mission settings? I've gone through 17 waypoints and 3 did not have Focus POI. One was at the end and 2 were on the flight to the site. At the site there were 3 key Focus POI's to get the shot needed. The three shots were at close to the same...
